During my recent visit to the German Tank Museum in Munster I was impressed, naturally enough, by their vast collection of vehicles, but also by their scale models. I think that many of their tanks were reproduced in miniature form too. Actually, what really struck me about them was the way they were presented – professional display cabinets with glass shelves and plenty of light. They appeared to be dust free too!

Well, having seen this I knew that I wanted to have something similar, albeit on a smaller scale. Until now I have not been able to adequately display and light my own efforts. After a perusal of various shopfitter and cabinet maker websites I found this. It looked the part and was not prohibitively expensive. After waiting two weeks for the company to make one for me it is now here. I think it is great. All I need to do is fill it up!
