Fred, Marnix,

thanks to you two I can now wipe clean my keyboard! :-D

How great are your collections! very clean presented with, like Hans also stated, a lot of wannahaves!

However I have to set some priorities therefor I called in a stpo for the moment.

Thanks a lot for sharing! It is a nice spending of the evening looking at yours!

Hi Marnix,
What a great collection you have. Love the way you mix up the display with different heights, angles, and groups. Very nicely done IMHO.

Cheers and Happy Collecting,
Steve

Thanks Steve,

As you can imagine, space is a continuing problem, so I have to be creative. Don't think the mrs. is excited about the prospect of a 4th cabinet ;-)

Spotted this shop on Cecil Court in London (any Harry Potter fans here?). Wonder how much this display costs...

There was a "Paternoster" cabinet back in 2008, which could be purchased directly from AUDI. Price was 2350 Euro.
Now perhaps on ebay?

Very nice display!!! (and a fantastic collection, too!)


I have finally begun preparations for my display cabinet to be built - hopefully by the end of the year it will be finished... I have been waiting too long for this, but despite the cost, seeing displays like these remind me that it will be worthwhile.

It took me about half a year to plan his as seen from my thread start date. I was working with the designer on hot to keep it air tight and came out with this solution.

Thats a fantastic display Phil!

To many collectors have priority on models, but the way they are displayed makes a good collection stand out!

Very beautiful solution Phil!
I suppose they glued the vertical wodden strip so it is to be udes as an handle to slide
the glass out........What an idea!

Great collection by the way!

Really love your latest piece: the 375MM (but the rest also: the '64 250 GTO e.g)

Thanks Hans and Mark,

But instead of using glass, I used the polycarbonate which is also very clear and light weight.
