Great display! Costa Mamalis (Pop Culture Livingroom) was the original creator that posted the tutorial that Peter followed. Peter has a larger following but I feel like he deserved a mention for his contribution.
Thank you for sharing great job and looks very nice. Retired and small space available and just got into 3D printing plus income is limiting, combinations to seek money saving ideas and still achieve a awesome display. Once again thanks for sharing and have a Happy New Year.
I have a couple of thoughts for how to build the next one. First, cut the back into individual pieces for each shelf. Cut them wide enough to cover the shelf adjustment holes on each side of the frame. Glue magnets to the back of each backing and use those to adhere the backs to the shelf frame. That will hide those adjustment holes. Second, in the same manner, go to the trim aisle of the big box hardware store and buy some thin slats of wood. They are really inexpensive. Paint them black and using the same magnet solution, cut them to size and use them to frame the front of the shelving frame and hide those adjustment holes as well. This would make it look a lot like your other shelves. Regardless, the collection looks great!
I am thinking i am going to Take some spray tack adhesive to put that cloth on the backing board like covering a speaker box with vinyl. then secure with tape or staples. will keep it from possibly sagging over time. I may paint my boards though . still debating.
Awesome video Graeme! I’m really glad my video helped inspire ya with the custom build, thanks for that quick shoutout 😊 Man I was considering getting this exact Muscle Rack with 24” depth for another build to have the option for larger vehicles in the future so it’s really cool to see how well it worked out here. Btw I’m super envious of your Batmobile & Tumbler 🤩🤤 Happy collecting my friend! 🙏
i actually just finished a case myself. I just need to add lighting . For the time being ima put rechargeable LED bars. 2 tips to make the case have a closer esthtic to moducase, is get pvc foam boards for the back boarding. The only thing is they could be a little pricey, i bought 15 boards for $80on amazon and i could complete 2 full cases and have some left over. They cut like butter, lightweight and look sleek & clean. Its really the best tip for these shelves. I also believe its what moiducase actually uses themselves. Tip #2 will be to get acrylic felt fabric for the shelves. I got a few yards more than what i needed on walmart for like $25. Amazon has it as well. Real 100% wool felt is expensive. What i got is a thin synthetic felt (acrylic felt). You couldn't tell the difference except that its thin. Which is what we want. And that's another thing moducasse uses. Is felt fabric for the shelves. Your case came out great!!! The fabric is preference. Some like to use faux leather, its whatever you prefer. But i highly, STRONGLY recommend the pvc foam boards, i wouldn't do it any other way. It's perfect for this! The easiest thing to work with as well. All you need is a box cutter. Great video & nice display
Now that I'm getting to the lighting aspect of my display, I'm reviewing DIY cases again. I got your previous message on the other video about the lighting. Im actually gonna go with a this type of lighting fixtures with diffusers on them already. I see you have the 48'' wide rack, i actually have the 36''w rack. And the lights im looking at is the same ones in your description except that there 2ft not 4ft like the ones in your display case. Are the bars actually 4ft long each? I see you installed 2 in each shelf. Do these have enough wire connecting each light bar from shelf to shelf? Or did you have to buy extension cords for them? That's what Costa another TH-camr recommended. I'm a little confused of the measurements in the listing on amazon, but from what i understand from it, It should be long enough. I just kinda want to ask someone personally that actually has used them to be certain. Thanks for the time & help. & Great reviews they help the community out a ton.
@@DonPeppinoo I had to use a 10ft extension cord to have them all hooked up together as the top shelf lights only went about halfway down the shelving unit in the back. Hope this helps! Thanks for watching!
Get a smart plug with basic led 3N adhesive small led lights. You can then operate lighting from your phone . That way all lights are equally sized due to their small size .
Excellent display 👍🏽. Has anyone tried screwing the side acrylic panels to the frame?? Since those wont move , is it possible to uses screws, washers and bolts? Thank you.
This is cool is have a garage shelves just like this all I need is to get everything else and what’s funny the 1/4 scale Batman makes the Batman mobile so tiny it would been awesome to have a 1/4 scale batmobile would be so huge

I know a few creators have completed the project but wasn’t aware of who the “creator” was. Thanks for the reference!

Absolutely amazing work! It looks like a high end museum display.

Great video, I have watched Peter’s video as well and I will definitely tackle this project !
Thanks for watching!
Great video ! Love the result, having a nice display really adds something to a collection :)
I’m kind of surprised how much I like it. We’ll see over time if I regret not adding plexiglass or not.
I think once you throw some acrylic on them, you're gonna have a beautiful case there imo
I had a hard time finding a way to cut them to size. Decided to go to Moducase.
LOL. 👍🏻 @@thejediknightswatch
Great video, how dirty are the sheets getting without plexiglass?
They didn’t get too dirty at all, but I have since switched to Moducase.
What if you used small black screws through the holes on the vertical beams and into the back board?
I think that would be a great idea!
How does the duct tape on the backboard hold up over time?
Not very well lol. I would say it should be fastened via nut and bolt or Maybe Velcro.
@@thejediknightswatch thanks for the quick reply. I’ve had my background loose for a while now.

@@thejediknightswatch thank god i asked.... This helps out a lot. Thanks man.
How did you attach the back board to the rack?
I used the black duct tape to adhere the backboard to the back of the rack.
Someone told me you could also use Velcro strips.

Thanks dude! Appreciate it!

@@RobChav504 I’m sure it would be possible! That or magnets
What Turles are those and how much were they and are they still available :D The MK 1989 BM is hype AF too!
Neca 1/4 tmnt. They’ve been king sold out. Your best bet is eBay. You can maybe find them for $500-600 total
@@thejediknightswatch Thanks! Seems Entertainment Earth is selling them in 2024 and theyre available for presale now.
It smells like I told you so in here!
I think it smells like teen spirit
@@thejediknightswatch 🤣
what did you film this with or take the photos with? great quality.
Thanks! I used my iPhone 14 pro
I was thinking about drilling holes in my backboard and using nuts and bolts placed in the rack holes and tighten.
@@jeffreyhorner6540 that’s a great idea!
@thejediknightswatch thanks man. I saw it on @HotToysHotline and @mrmomcollectables page.
It's a great idea 💡
Use super glue on the edges to avoid the peeling.
would you do this for the vinyl on the plexiglass? This is the only thing i have to do to complete my case
Zip ties will work on the backboard
That’s a good idea👍🏻
Thanks brother
No problem. Thanks for watching!
Great video…..Fab you got this
😂
Awesome!!

Yeah I think a 1/4 batmobile would be the size of a room! Lol
@@thejediknightswatch 😅 too big hehe gona start working on this project soon
You mentioned plexiglass, did you mean ACRYLIC???
@@GerryHicks-ki5uf yes
