Here we have a top of the line display case. Best bulbs, best diffuser, best ballast, best shelves. 5000K Daylight Bulbs with 92 Color Rendering Index and 20,000 hour life rating. 1/4 inch thick sign grade plexiglass that will not yellow over the years. One - four bulb electronic ballast that will run quietly and cooler than the older magnetic ballast. 3 - 1/2 inch thick glass shelves four inches by 48 inches. Comes with custom box for storing and transporting glass shelves to and from shows. Made with 3/4 inch cabinet grade oak plywood and trimmed out with solid oak. Eight vent holes on the back to keep air moving. The bulbs and ballast run very cool, but a lighting engineer at Philips lighting told me the cooler you keep things the longer they will last. The finish is a Golden Oak. Smooth back with rounded edges for easy sliding into and out of vehicles. A single light switch is on the side with an outlet right below the switch for easy power access. Dimensions are 49.5" wide, 28" tall, and 12.75" deep. You can get 88 ponies, or 72 tolls, or 64 beehives/signals in the case. My price is $600, which is basically the material and a little for my labor. I will deliver this to the Albuqerque show at the end of Sept or the Springfield show on Nov 3rd. Otherwise, we will have to figure something else out. I will not ship this as I have way to much blood sweat and tears invested to have it demolished by a shipper. |
