So I Picked up a 6 foot display case I saw on craigslist. This thing was in a barn with no bottom no lights no sliding glass, pretty much a dirty shell of what once was a case. I started with a clean up and removing the top glass to replace the seal that was full of dead bugs and glitter for some reason :icon_scratch:. I then installed an 8 foot LED light strip along the sides and top and hid the wire through the frame and into the bottom which would get hidden with a new base. I cut and stained the new base for it and build custom shelves and stained to match the base. I took some measurements and had a local glass place cut the sliding front for me. I think this thing came out great and gives off a museum vibe lit up in the house. Enjoy guys!

Extremely impressive! I agree... looks like a museum piece.
 
Coming from someone who was robbed before... you just made it really easy for a robber to find everything and be gone in seconds. Unless you don't mind losing whatever is in there.

I have 4 cameras, a bad ass dog and many guns that say there not leaving with anything :laughing7: You cant keep all the things you love to look at and show off boxed up because you live your life in fear of what if.
 
Awesome case restoration. Certainly a steep above the rest!��
