I also use two 12" x 6" x 2" side-by-side on the shelves for the longer vitolas. $5 and $7 respectfully.

Pardon the mess...I'm in the beginning stages of organizing.

I bought a bunch for this and my 36qt project.

What is holding the shelves up?

Dunno, but I suspect gravity is holding them down.

Nice, broh. Looks like you got enough of a stash to last for the week anyway.

The 152 igloo has very shallow grooves, so I had to get creative. I'll post a close up in a little bit.

Concerning the collection, this is just the storage locker. I've got 2 desktops, with one large one on the way. Plus a 36qt igloo for boxes.

Did you just cut the shelves to size, or is their a particular place you purchased at the proper width? I have been using the same cooler, but not standing tall.

I made a template out of cardboard, then went to the Home Depot and asked them to cut down one of their shelves. The rear of the shelves fit in the grooves, and I use a wooden dowel to support it, and a dowel at the front of the slot to hold up the front of the shelf.

rear dowel (1/2" squared) is 13 15/16"

front dowel (5/8" squared) is 14 1/8"

rear of shelf cut to 13 3/4" WITHOUT the rubber caps

middle of shelf cut to 14 1/4" WITHOUT the rubber caps

front of shelf cut to 14 3/8" WITHOUT the rubber caps

The front dowel is going to be tight, just press it in so it's snug and won't pop out after giving it a tap or two.

Oh, I'm standing it up on top of an old nightstand, and used double-sided tape to keep it from sliding around.
