MrObsessive Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Hey that's a neat idea! I oughta try something like that as I've got a LOT of old restorable models waiting to be redone! Since they're waiting for a resto, you need not worry about 'em collecting dust and whatnot...........beats keeping them wrapped up in a box, where at least you could see 'em.

rollinoldskoo Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 (edited) a cheap way is to use metal corner braces and the 4" window panes like the wall of projects in my bedroom... you can see the chassis too Edited September 27, 2008 by rollinoldskoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RodneyBad Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 Now it looks like a Hearse. Nice job on the door and roof. As for my projects, I leave them in the box, don't have enough wall space. It's taken up by boxed kits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
