I have a couple of questions.

The Detolfs scare the holy crap out of me. I think I'm going with one Besta and one Billy.

1) For the Billy: I'm planning to get the 79 1/2 x 31 1/2" Billy with the Morebo doors. I know it's not terribly deep, but if I've read correctly, this should be sufficient for most museum style statues, yes?

2) For the Besta: I'm planning to get the 75 5/8" x 47 1/4" Besta. I'm guessing the tall Morebo doors won't fit on the Besta? The best match I could find is the Tombo doors, but those seem like they're ungodly expensive ($50.00 per door, which would mean covering the Besta would take $200.00). Is it even possible to fit four of the Tombo doors on the Besta? Is there a better door match for the Besta?

Bump... anybody know the answer to my question? About to rent an SUV and drive two hours to pick the cases up, so I'd like to know.

Well, answered my own questions. In case anybody is looking for the answers:

1) Are Billys sufficient for most Bowen museum styles? Answer: Yes. Even the Museum pieces with the larger bases seem to fit easily. You can arrange most museum pieces on the Billy two deep if you wish... it's entirely possible to fit 4-5 museum pieces on one shelf, as long as they don't have an absurdly large base (I'm looking at you, Classic Nova ).

2) You can indeed fit 4 Tombo doors on the double Besta. I did not see a better match for Besta doors. I'm not sure if the Morebo doors would fit... I think they're a little bit taller. I can measure tonight when I get home if anybody cares.

I'll be posting pictures of my setup as soon as I dig my tripod out to take a few pictures.

Where do you find the Besta and Billy cases? I have detofs similar to the ones at Ikea but once I get my new house set up I want better cabinets.

I can't find anything good on Ikea's website.
