This is a display case that I built years ago to display my car models. The idea was to have a scale model of every car I've ever owned (and ones I want). Some cars I've owned had no models the correct scale (1/24 or 1/25) so I've just displayed pics of those. The display case makes nice wallpaper againt the white wall.

Have more than I can count... been building them since I was a kid. I have a stack of about 50 that are either partially finished or still sealed in the box.

Looks nice but I would have to have you extend the shelving space down on the right side to make it even. Now make the darn bed.:slap:

Yep, married, but that display is in "my" room where I keep my clothes, etc. Actually, she's never said a word about the display.

Why would you let your wife put such a dainty bed in your room? :confused:
