Displaying/storing your models?

You guys have some very nice set ups. I don't have anything close to them just a couple closed display cases and most are in the open.

One thing that DID HELP with the dust in the room I display my models is a Winix PlasmaWave air fliter with a washable fliter. I used one in my bed room to help with allergies and right away I noticed there was way less dust in my bedroom than ever before. It didn't take long before putting 2 and 2 together so I ordered another one for the room my FINISHED models are in. It made a big difference. There is still a little dust but nothing like it used to be. With the washable fliters and I only use it to keep the dust down in that one room I can keep using the same fliter for years and when I need a new fliter for the beedroom i can wash it then put it in the other room. I bought them on Amazon. Check them out.

An in-room air filter is a good idea for reducing dust.  

Glad I found this thread, I was just about to start a discussion asking how you all display your completed models.

I've only completed two models since returning to this hobby (and I'm about 75% done with my third), but I'm already running into a problem with finding space to put them when they're done.  As you can see from the pic below my two completed planes are currently having to share space on the coffee table with my T-Rex.

I think this looks absurd.  I don't really have any room for a display cabinet, or more shelving.  I might have to get a bigger house!  D'oh!

Cheers, Mark.

Consider yourself lucky, Mark. I've got mine in an old stereo cabinet. Well, those ones are. The rest are in boxes.

Digging up an old thread...

Getting back into the hobby after a 13 year break. I should be completing my first build in the next few weeks...but then I have to put it somewhere. I’m going to ”rent” some space in my wife’s curio cabinet, but I’m looking for a dedicated solution. I like the Ikea case linked above; does anyone have any other recommendations as well?

If you are handy one can be easily custom built by you. I was gonna build one but found a hell of a deal from a shop that was closing down.

sometimes you find really good cabinets at thrift shops and habitat for humanity stores.

I live on the Gulf Coast and I keep a damp-rid humidity trap near my models so they don't get damp from the air. If I had a dedicated room I'd put a dehumidifier in it to keep the room below 45% relative humidity. Vacume the room you store them in every other day if you have carpet.
