                        I bought the display cases at Ikea, the paper clips at a stationery store and glass plates at aluminum and glass store. A 3'x4' 3mm thick glass plate can be cut into 6 plates of 33x36cm. My FB photo album had English description in some pictures where I stated clearly that I used paper clips (19mm). Thanks for your interest and comments!

                        This may be a silly question, did you buy Them at ikea? I was able to find something similar at a supply store. I like the idea to add shelves. It actually took me two tries to catch the clips and see how the glass to understand the post. Nice idea!

                        In the pattern: Scale Shipyard's 1/48 Balao Class Sub! leaning out the list...NOT! Ha, added to it again - Viper MkVii, 1/32 THUD & F-15J plus a weekend madness build!

                        Great! I was just telling my wife it's time to buy more IKEA displays.  I'll use your suggestion and add glass and clips. Thanks!
