Ever since I sold my WC Zeros and rigid stems, my cams are a mix of CCH, Totem, Metolius, and BD. I'll add in Trango and HB when things get wide. Passive: Metolius, CAMP, BD, DMM, HB, and WC.

Do I win?
pictures or it didn't . . .

Nope. This thread is only for non-matching racks. None of this "look at my double set of BD ultralights with matching Oz biners" shenanigans.

But, but... my camalots are C4's, not ultralights, and my totems also have Oz biners (so different brands)... Can I still post, or should I cancel the cam photoshoot I was planning?

And also, I must say that your library of goat memes is truly impressive. Do you pull these off of google image search, or do you have a massive library of images, cataloged and keyworded? (Or is it somewhere in between?)

Permission granted, good sir. And re: memes ...

Fritz. That goat looks way to happy.  

Reminds me of a joke from the old homeland.

“Why does the rancher love his goat at the edge of a cliff?”

“So it pushes back”

11/10 gotez prefer Metolius.

I couldn't decide what small cams to get, so I have 0 and 1 Metolius UL mastercams, a .4 x4, and yellow/gray Fixe Aliens.

Every one of them has a matching racking biner though, since I'm a little OCD.

My rack is so Franken some friends won’t even let me bring it along.  Only 3 of the cams even have the original color slings.  

It’s like a cam sanctuary. Feel free to send me all of your cams that don’t fit with your others.

So, it's a virtual Island of Misfit Cams?

Guilty as charged! Although I recently ripped off my left big toe nail. Shoes fit much better now. Where did you find that picture?

You, sir, have attained Pro Status.  Neither the brands nor the slings nor the biners match.

I would totally climb on those.

As much as I loved Gene Wilder, I don't wanna see his rack. Maybe Inga's?

Ha, I forgot I sent that in. I'll have to go check out the library's copy, since the feature is print-only.

My finger-sizes are pretty Frankenracked right now. I was all x4s but then bought some Totems. Then I bought some Totem Basics. And I have a couple Metolius TCUs. To be honest, I don't like having so many options to think about. Will probably get rid of all the X4s or the basics and just settle on one of them + Totem Totems. 

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
