Custom Display cases, where to buy?

Post by [KRAFTIG] » Fri Jan 03, 2014 8:49 pm

Looking for something basic to house the 1:8 Aventador. Anyone know of reputable source that doesn't cost an arm, leg, and a ball ;)

Maybe look for a wish tank and flip it upside down? I can't picture what a 1:8 looks like though so not sure how that would look.

Thanks.

I was quoted $115 for 1/8" thick or $130 for 3/16" thick acrylic. This includes base and display top.

No problem. I think this is too small, and I'm not sure this company still exists. It may be worth a look though.
