Take advantage of slicing:

for i in range(0, len(self.total_num_of_items),

simply amazing. Thank you.
OK - to address your original question:
def create_grid(self):
table = []
while self.total_num_of_items:
row = []
count = 0
while count < self.max_num_of_items_per_row and
self.total_num_of_items:
row.append(self.total_num_of_items.pop(0))
count += 1
table.append(tuple(row))
return table
At first I regarded you with quiet awe, but then the nitpick in me saw the
two "while self.total_num_of_item" statements, and I was less pleased.
However, I see this as a doable challenge you have given me, and I will
attempt to optimize your revisions. Thanks again.
