Tough display case to find (1 Viewer)

[zblang]

I am looking for a display cabinet that would have at least one shelf that would fit a K&C B-17 (approx 40 inch wing span). Has anyone seen such a cabinet. I am thinking something that would be wide at the base and narrow for the upper shelves. I have this bomber in the box still and it's killing me

If there were such a cabinet, it would take up a lot of room. My suggestion is to buy a display cabinet that is not terribly tall and place the plane on top.

Alternatively, you could send it to me, which will take care of your problem :rolleyes2:

How about a clear acrylic case with a wooden base, it would have to be made to measure but I had one made for my WBritains Nile River Gun Boat.

First thing is to figure out where a display cabinet can go. That will help determine how big it can be. If It is a large room devoted to your collection, consider putting the display in the centre of the room instead of against a wall so you can see it from all sides. Also consider that you may want to use the display for dioramas from time to time.

I would get a nice square table bar height size which you can get at any unfinished furniture store. Then you can have a custom plastic cover made to cover the top. I have used this company for custom cases, they do good work.

If you're selling all your HECO can I put in a pre-emptive low bid for the entire lot? Then you will have room for the B-17 {sm3}
