Display Cases You Can Build

This book contains clear, concise, well-illustrated plans and instructions for building several beautiful display cases for a variety of different kinds of displays. I am currently building a display case for a wooden model sailing ship using the design in the book, and plan to build several of the other designs as well. Highly recommended!

Great book! I was looking for design ideas and technics to creating the designs. I was able to use the skills the book has provide and my project was a great success.

On many of these projects you need sophisticated and expensive equipment.Also some of the techniques called for are very dangerous to perform. Some methods of assembly are complicated and the construction is weak.

This book was written in a thoughtful manner. The projects not only will be useful display cases, but the building process may teach you a new technique or two. Mr. Proulx gives plenty of room for the reader to use preferences and our imagination to customize the build process. Ideas presented in a chapter can be utilized and adapted throughout the book and added to your skill set. I feel these are quality projects using the tools that most of us have access to along with reasonable raw materials. Before the first assembly there is a review of materials, hardware, and joinery. The eleven projects are as follows:1) Table display cabinet -the example shown is an enclosed case for a model sail boat.2) Tall display cabinet - this is an 80" tall cabinet such that you could use for figurines.3) Wall mounted cabinet4) Divider wall display cabinet5) China credenza and hutch6) Contemporary display and storage cabinet7) Corner china and display cabinet8) Wine display and storage cabinet - includes details on building raised panel doors and drawers.9) Entertainment and display cabinet10) Curio cabinet11) Military memorabilia cabinetAs you can see there is a wide variety of displays. I also have several of the author's other books and they ALWAYS provide fun, interesting, and useful projects and woodworking lessons. You cannot go wrong with Danny Proulx.

Product and picture description is a bit different

The booklet was very interesting and gave good insight into the construction of display cases. I have not yet undertaken such work.
