I wonder if there is a correlation: amount of available booze to number of kits that make it to display?
That looks fantastic. Thanks for the response!
Looks great and that does sound fun. Though it would eat into the time I should be spending whittling down the stash…
Great and nice idea to have the opening on the side!Good question, especially if you've got a ton of kits to build. I had to build my own, because there wasn't anything I could find to hold some of my builds. If you've got the tools and the know-how, ya might consider customizing your own. It's a heck of a lot of fun too, btw.
Nice! Talk about 'hyperspace'!
The wall mount is an interesting idea... I'm just starting plane builds, and was wondering how to display...
Ah, a realist!
I took one of my glass shelves to a local glass & mirror "store" and asked them to make a few more just like it, tempered/tinted with polished (rounded) edges. Paid a bit more for the custom glass than the cabinet but installed them for pennies myself.
I've never been much of a collector of anything, even as a kid getting any awards or trophy, they got shoved someplace or tossed. I keep a few things that I find useful and the rest......we must part ways. I think it stems from my dad. He collected so much stuff, like just below horder level and it always drove me nuts. He'd puff out his chest with pride and say " yup this will all be yours someday" I finally replied with " ok but can we start getting rid of it all now then?" I had an old friend that kept all his beer bottle caps too, dude had thousands of them.
...it can be a sensitive topic at a certain age, but I think you and the Swedes got it right with 'Döstädning'...
After I read this I decided to toss some older, not so good builds and create some space for new ones. I thinned out the bookcase and will soon thin out the wall of planes.
I like the lightweight, very dustproof plastic display cases from Amazon. I don't have as many models as most people here. If I had a lot, I'd get a big curio cabinet.
