Modular shelving and method

A modular shelving system comprising:

• (A) a set of mounting brackets held in spaced apart and parallel manner to support at least one bottom shelving rod and at least one top shelving rod in a spaced-apart and parallel orientation to each other;
• (B) the at least one bottom shelving rod terminates in bottom rod ends, between said bottom rod ends are a tandemly located, longitudinally aligned series of open ended cups, wherein at least one spacing between at least two of the open ended cups of the tandemly located, longitudinally aligned series of open-ended cups is adjustable;
• (C) the at least one top shelving rod terminates in top rod ends, between the top rod ends are tandemly located, longitudinally aligned series of top rod apertures, wherein at least one spacing between at least two of the top rod apertures of the tandemly located, longitudinally aligned series of top rod apertures is adjustable;
• and
• (D) at least one support shelving rod that defines a pair of support rod ends, at least one support shelving rod having a circumference that allows a passage of the least one support rod end from the pair of support rod ends through at least one respective top rod aperture from the series of top rod apertures and the at least one support rod end from the pair of support rod ends fits into at least one respective opened-end cup from the series of open-ended cups.
