Here we have a top of the line display case.

Best bulbs, best diffuser, best ballast, best shelves.

4 - 5000K Daylight Bulbs with 86 Color Rendering Index and 30,000 hour life rating.

1/4 inch thick sign grade milky white plexiglass diffuser that will not yellow over the years.

One - four bulb electronic ballast that will run quietly and cooler than the older magnetic ballast.

4 - 1/2 inch thick Starphire (almost crystal clear) glass shelves four inches by 48 inches.

Optional custom box for storing and transporting glass shelves to and from shows. (Extra $50) Or optional glass storage cubbyhole built inside the toekick area. (Extra $40)

Made with 3/4 inch cabinet grade oak plywood and trimmed out with solid oak.

Six 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.

Your choice of stain color. Otherwise, the standard finish is a Golden Oak (shown). Smooth back with rounded edges for easy sliding into and out of vehicles.

A single light switch is on the side with a power outlet right below the switch for easy power access. Recessed switch on back is a $40 option.

Approximate dimensions are 49.5" wide, 35" tall, and 12.75" deep.

You can get 110 ponies, or 90 tolls, or 80 beehives/signals in the case.

My price is $720, which is basically the material and a little for my labor. My material costs have gone up considerably since I last listed these on the gallery, thus the higher price. I still believe you won't find a better price for the same size case.

I will deliver this to the St. Joe show on March 12th. 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.

Picture is of an identical case made previously. Your case is being built. Your options include: stain color, switch location (right side, left side or recessed on back), and glass storage box or cubbyhole.
