Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I'm on the same mission here in Australia. I see some people with great displays on this site and have been meaning to ask them what they are.I'm considering making my own with the help of my cousin ( cabinet maker) if anything useful comes from that I will letbyou know. Otherwise I'm patrolling local eBay and similar sites just in case something good comes up, so far like most people, ikea has been my place of purchase for display cases.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Haha but too expensive.... I think ikea besta is pretty good for heavy display, and it's cheap!
