Janis--
Did you check out "Mobile support system for objects with shafts" by
Paul Storch (pp 103-105), "Support No. 1 for objects with shafts" by
Margaret Graham-Bell (pp 107-108) and "Support No. 2 for objects with
shafts" by Varineau and Odegaard (pp 109-110), all in "Storage of
Natural History Collections: Ideas and Practical Solutions" by
Rose and de Torres (a.k.a. the SPNHC Storage book...)? Surely
somewhere in those three articles you can pick up some useful tips?
