Modular shelving and method

A modular shelving system comprising:

• (A) at least two mounting brackets;
• (B) at least one bottom shelving rod that defines at least one open-ended cup,
• (C) at least one top shelving rod that defines at least one top rod aperture penetrating laterally through the at least one top shelving rod;
• (D) at least one support shelving rod, the at least one support shelving rod extends through the at least one top rod aperture and rests in the at least open-ended cup;
• (E) the at least two mounting brackets directly support the at least one bottom shelving rod and the at least one top shelving rod;
• wherein the at least two mounting brackets are attached to a vertical surface in a spaced-apart parallel manner to support the at least one bottom shelving rod and the at least one top shelving rod, wherein the at least one top shelving rod and the at least one bottom shelving rod support the at least one support shelving rod in a sloped position.

A method for operating a modular shelving system comprising the following steps:

• (A) providing the modular shelving system, the modular shelving system comprises at least two mounting brackets, at least one bottom shelving rod that defines at least one open-ended cup, at least one top shelving rod that defines at least one top rod aperture penetrating laterally through the at least one top shelving rod, and at least one support shelving rod;
• (B) attaching the at least one bottom shelving rod and the at least one top shelving rod to the at least two mounting brackets so that the at least two mounting brackets support the at least one bottom shelving rod and the at least one top shelving rod;
• (C) passing the at least one support rod through the at least one top rod aperture of the at least one top shelving rod so that one rod end of the at least one support shelving rod is inserted in the at least one open-ended cup of the at least one bottom shelving rod with the at least one support rod being held in a sloped position;
• (D) attaching the at least two mounting brackets to a vertical surface in a spaced apart parallel manner.
