Oh interesting - we have cheese in delis too but a cheese shop is something else. Usually stuffed with cheese of many varieties (though nearly always lacking Bleu de Bresse in my experience - and that's a sad experience) - that picture is quite modest in the cheese-stuffing department tbh.
One of the things about the way EAxis set up shopping that doesn't entirely fit with a cheese shop like that (or a fishmongers come to that) is the serve-yourself (or simself) thing. In a shop like that, the assistants would cut and weigh your cheese for you (hence me making the weighing machine) and then wrap it up.
Anyway, we can't do that so I was originally thinking of cheese displays (the truckles) with additional buyable, stockable items (the slices). Other cuts of truckles would be good. I'd not thought of stackable but there are clearly stacked truckles in that picture so that would be good and would allow for variety. Would it involve adding slots (not done this)? I'll go over the big truckle mesh again (it's pretty simple) and post it tomorrow for you. Other recolours would be possible but the main cheeses that come in big truckles like that are Cheddar (the base colour), Stilton, Lancashire and, I think, Caerphilly. I was going to do a Lancashire recolour but wasn't going to do a Caerphilly. Much though I love both cheeses there's not a lot of difference in appearance between them - a pale crumbly cheese is pretty much a pale crumbly cheese. Other candidates would be Double Gloucester (nice deep yellow) and Leicestershire (orange!) but D Gloucester is usually a flatter (though big) wheel and Leicester is more likely to be found these days as a waxed truckle (the other mesh - which I'll get on and finish). Having said that Leicester also comes in a smaller version of the big truckle (as does Cheshire). You often see cut in half truckles too.
One of the reasons I like the half Decra Chill I included in the lot is that it has a sort of shelf on top and then the refrigerated bit - I thought that might work for displays on top and saleable bits in the fridge.
