Everyone,
I'm hunting for the perfect display case for our ENIAC/UNIVAC exhibit.
Currently we are using a black wooden case that's about 4 ft. tall x 4 ft. wide x 2 ft. deep. But the bottom 2 feet are storage; only the top half is a display space. It looks like this: http://www.achievedisplay.com/prodimages/half-glass-display-case-l.gif except the bottom is black. It has three redeeming qualities: it's lighted, it's on casters, and the inside back doors are mirrored.
Anyway, we have more artifacts that should be shown and no extra floor space, so we could use something taller with multiple levels.
What I envision: - shelves at (approx.) 2, 3, and 4 ft. tall - mirrored and locking back doors - all shelves lighted - black or metal exterior - hidden casters on all corners - glass or plexi front
Does anyone have something like this or know where one could be obtained inexpensively?
how about this ? it not exquisite, but it still looks respectable only $70, plus it includes a lighting option for $7 But.....I didn't see any locks I would think there's a way to add a locking option, probably from a 3rd party Because those types just get several hundred $$ more expensive http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/10119206/#/10119206 it says there's some in stock at the Elizabeth, Paramus and Philly stores Dan
I could make it (stop laughing!) but the materials would be expensive.
