For like $50 more you can get the fab-something from ikea which doesn’t let the dust in, is way more stable and safe, and has metal top that works well for installing magnetic led lights. Totally worth it.

Absolutely perfect video and just what I was looking for! Great advice and descriptions!

[@alexanderflausa2478]

Awsome video. I'm planning a new hobby room, and this was exactly the video I needed to see.

[@johnbeaudoin7820]

I look forward to having room for a Detolf someday; nice video on the light installation!

[@davidearmellini9925]

I've always wanted to buy myself such a showcase for my miniatures, but dust has always worried me, the upgrades you suggested for the Detolf are great thanks! Now my Sylvaneth and my Salamanders will have a place that does them justice.

Awesome job thank you 👍

[@sirretnuh]

great tutorial glad I found it I'll definitely rewatch when I get all the parts I need

[@theminiaturemen40k]

Thank you!

Thanks for the advice! This is great content

[@theminiaturemen40k]

Glad it helped!

[@TheStoicArmyPainter]

this video was really what i was looking for thank you

[@theminiaturemen40k]

No problem! Glad it helped

[@redbeardie]

Great video - I just need to paint up another 1500 points and I’ll get straight on it 😁. I also really liked the glimpse of your minis - I’m working on a salamanders army with a really similar look. Really nice, especially the rubble basing 👌

[@theminiaturemen40k]

Awesome man! Love Salamanders!!

"DETOLF"

[@ItsMeMattCarter]

Man. 2 years later its now listed as $129.99 at my Ikea

[@Socraz6]

Welp, now we’re going to IKEA on Sunday.

[@theminiaturemen40k]

Awesome! Just make sure they are in stock first they go in and out of stock often!

[@alessiodecarolis]

I bought one yrs ago, and its only drawbacks are only 4 shelves and lack of dustproof. I then found about some tutorials on KZbin how add shelves and it works well.

[@joshuapannell8131]

i sadly cannot get this case. my local Ikea has been out of stock for months and didnt give me an order option.

[@notacrow6286]

Thank you even though I literally don't know what minis are. But I can finally display my Japanese figures and don't have to worry about them getting dust. Do you recommend taskrabbit for assembly?

[@theminiaturemen40k]

I assembled all of them myself so I don’t know about taskrabbit. I would defiantly suggest having you and another person if you do build them yourself. Solo is a bit sketchy haha

[@notacrow6286]

@@theminiaturemen40k Also the LED strips that you linked are not available any other LED strips you would recommend?

[@theminiaturemen40k]

amzn.to/3QFgvPW These look to be the same kit under another name. The color temperature should be the same as well

[@notacrow6286]

@@theminiaturemen40k what about the foam strips will they work fine with the Detolf recommended lights

[@danieljoline5552]

@@notacrow6286 yes, the foam strips will work fine with the lights I linked.

[@johnandlissa]

Is there any way to add additional shelves - seems a bit of a waste standard size minis.

[@theminiaturemen40k]

You can. People sell shelf inserts on eBay and Etsy

[@joegreene328]

the same shelf is now $129 at ikea smhhhh they raised it so much

[@theminiaturemen40k]

Yea. It’s still good value compared to other things but it used to be a steal.

[@JoobyFoo]

aye $129 now

[@IEatSocks12]

detlof is $100 now

[@vasili1207]

only $66 in uk dont know why in the comments ther saying $120

[@gmpbuilder]

10/23/2023 Ikea price $129.99. That's inflation for you.

[@yacab1]

There's no Detolf in Canada :'(.

[@theminiaturemen40k]

Dang :/ sorry my friend

[@Still-Focus-]

Interesting the price says $129.99 now?

[@theminiaturemen40k]

Yup, inflation. You used to be able to buy everything listed for just under 100

[@Still-Focus-]

@@theminiaturemen40k dang bad timing, just a year late.

[@vasili1207]

lights are called minger lol thays crazy google it and the meaning

[@theezekarion164]

Those Detolf are now over $100 apiece

[@theminiaturemen40k]

Damn you inflation!!!

[@theezekarion164]

@@theminiaturemen40k 😆 🤣 😂 I know right and read that there lowering the quality? Where it held 22 lbs now only holds 8lbs?

[@theminiaturemen40k]

That may be true if they make the glass thinner but I doubt that. Even 8lbs of minis per shelf would be a lot though

[@DeltaCo275thMilsim]

Hell it's now $130!

[@sapphiccharlotte1818]

this shit is over $100 now, inflation L
