Before I added the 3rd cabinet I had all the SW puzzles on 1 shelf. I spread them out over 2 now that the Tessarisis is coming (eventually). I have 2 on order.

That is an impressive display wall Stet!
I see you have proper lighting mounted in the top. How does that work out on the lower shelves? Especially right under the Revo stands it was awfully dark in my cabinet ( before I rearranged it and got rid of the stands).
Do you use any other lighting (except for the photo flash)?

And why on earth would you order 2 Tessa-burr-cube-thingy-puzzles?

Here is a night pic with no flash and no room lights turned on. Sometime over the last year Ikea changed their Dioder lights to "warm white" which is what is in the right cabinet. At first I was really upset and started looking around online for an older set but now I'm starting to like the new ones better and may replace the old ones with them. As you can see they don't do a good job with the lower levels. I would like to add some lights to help but haven't figured out what to use.

As far as the Tessarisis goes I have a standard and limited edition coming.

Wauw, that is a very impressive collection Prodigy, and a great way to display with decent lighting!
I see metal is you thing, right? No wood, no twisties.
Did I mention your collection is impressive? It is!

So I take it you only like metal puzzles then? Nice shelves and collection, I to use the Besta shelves, as they are much more customizable in regards to size, doors, drawers, wood, etc. What are you using to stand your revos up in?
