    Default Display cabinet

    Starting a new project,
    a display cabinet to fit in a wall opening of a safe room.
    To big for my little shop so I use a ping pong table in my
    family room for assembly.
    (I attached a PDF of my plan)
    Anyone ever wanting a plan of any of my projects please let me know.
    They are AutoCAD dwg's. I can make a PDF of.

    Red face Building the Frame

    Back to the ping pong table for assembly. Finally
    got the frame done.
    This would be an easy project if it weren't so big

    Hi JC
    thank you fioor sharing your plans for this cabinet.
    I'm curious as to why you have chosen to angle one row of shelf holes. I can see that the shelves have different depths, but why angle the front row of holes rather than drill them parallel to the rear row, and off-set for the different shelf depths?
    regards from Alberta, Canada

    I could have, but this way I can still have some adjustability If
    he adds an extra shelf.
    I wasn't sure where to exactly change the spacings if he adds one.

    The display case is great, but I much prefer the contents of the top 3 shelves.
