Thank you SO much for this. The official instructions are impossible!

[@HNXMedia]

Happy the video helped. Rest, relax, and most importantly, have fun displaying your stuff! Enjoy your case. Peace.

[@acoustic4themeparks]

You're a blessing for this tutorial. I was not comprehending these instructions at all 💀 Hope your pillow is always cool!

[@sweetiemissemi]

Great video very helpful, no screws dropped!

[@saltyshellback]

My glass case blew up as soon as I took it out of the box 😄

[@HNXMedia]

Sounds about right for 9 out of 10 folks.

[@RathalosEmperor]

I was thinking of buying some

[@walktwicetorun]

Saved me some time, so thanks! Kudos for the 3d print file too!

[@HNXMedia]

You're welcome! Enjoy your case!

[@HuplesCat]

As a teen I worked in a uk ikea prequel. MFI. We used three to four kits to build each display model. It wasn’t quality! However as an adult I can build ikea and similar without issue. The secret? Get all the bits out and handle each piece. Look har$ and visualize how they will fit. Next read the instructions. Expect them to be useless. Then build it without screwing or nailing. Handle each piece. Then start slowly screwing or nailing it.

[@HNXMedia]

You have to pick and choose what you are going to get from Ikea and gauge life-expectancy accordingly. I dread to think how much stuff in my house is from Ikea, but it is super close by, relatively inexpensive and some items are exceptional quality. Others? Well, once you build them, don't ever try to move them.

[@LitoLorica-nr3pt]

Thank you for this video installation, it helps a lot. God bless

[@HNXMedia]

You are absolutely welcome! Thank YOU for watching and taking the time to leave a comment.

[@HarshmanHills]

This is why my wife puts this stuff together lol

[@HNXMedia]

Wise man.

[@maxwelldevries1821]

Thanks so much my gunpla are finally safe from my cats and I feel confident on starting to paint now that they’re safe. for some carpets you might want to get a riser pad my display rocks ever so slightly and can tip things😢

[@HNXMedia]

Glad I could help! Raise your flag!

[@Shy_ted-g9m]

Nice one mate thanks for the help! I would recommend putting the shelving brackets on before you put the door on and lie it down I found that way much easier .. but that might just be me🤷🏼‍♂️

[@HNXMedia]

That is a great idea!

[@tonyyero7231]

Nightmare to put those magnet screws in the side of the door panel! They made the wholes way too small on the one I got..massed produced so some might not have this issue.

[@HNXMedia]

You are correct. They were way to small on mine as well. This thing takes a ridiculous level of patience. I think it pays off in the finished product. Thanks for watching. Stay well.

[@cooprmull]

thx for the vid mate. I don't think i could of done it with the Ikea rules haha

[@daranphilipson1025]

Those inside brackets had me swearing in frustration 😂

[@HNXMedia]

I feel your pain. But you got it done, so that's what matters. Enjoy your case and thanks for watching and leaving a comment.

[@matthewclark1058]

Thank you for this video. It really helped me assembly the display case! I appreciate it!

[@HNXMedia]

Great to hear! Glad it helped!

[@gatlindragon88]

Thanks, I used your video to build my Blaliden. I ended up using super glue for the ring magnets, it worked lol.

[@HNXMedia]

Nice fix!

[@MandalorianRaider]

My case is missing the pins that are supposed to sit in the hinges and in not sure what to do

[@ani-we8ix]

Thank you! 😅

[@HNXMedia]

Happy to help

[@benjiuwii]

Very nice video, was extremely helpful! Thanks a lot!

[@HNXMedia]

Happy to help.

[@cryptoyalty8188]

First had an issue with the top frame, one of the threads had a metal chunk covering it... only to find out after waiting a week for my replacement part and coming back to this video that the door is just missing the screw holes for the magnets.. they just don't exist. Will be buying a strip instead which should also help seal it from outside air a little better. Thanks for this video though, the instructions for this were a nightmare, even on IKEA standards.

[@HNXMedia]

It is a beautiful case - just not user friendly to assemble. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.

[@Destinfoy]

I can’t get the screws to even remotely go in for the magnet part. Should I use a drill?

[@HNXMedia]

I am not sure I would risk it. You might try to "widen" the holes with a nail or something. I would be afraid that the vibration (or slip) with the drill could shatter the case. That's just my thoughts.

[@natalieamos317]

Same I cant get them in at all. What did you end up doing?

[@Destinfoy]

@@natalieamos317 I used a small screwdriver and made the hole big enough.

[@coorslite619]

Fuck those screws!

[@LetsPlayArcade]

Thanks for the useful video!

[@HNXMedia]

Happy to help. Enjoy the case! Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment. Stay well.

[@chopsddy3]

Ikea should hire you or at least pay you to make some instructional videos. This is top notch. (As long as your not using this to display the shrunken heads of your vanquished foes,)

[@HNXMedia]

* I slowly step in front of my case to block your view * No, I would never display something like that, that's just silly.

[@chopsddy3]

@@HNXMedia Please pardon my age induced devolution.

[@adw049]

Thanks bro 🤙🏼

[@HNXMedia]

Happy to help.

[@Michprem]

Is there a way not to place the door and remove the pre-installed brackets for the door?

[@HNXMedia]

The easiest way to get a completely "open front" (like it sounds like you want) would be to take the glass out of the door itself and just not install the door knob. Other than that, you would have to grind off the door hinges and then repaint the area. Hope this gives you some ideas.

[@Michprem]

@@HNXMedia Thank you very much! I will give it a try. I bought it yesterday and I am waiting for ikea to deliver it to me.

[@Cr7farhanh]

Solid video, completed mine using this video good, stuff lad

[@HNXMedia]

Happy to help. Enjoy the case! Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment.

[@Yakkers]

Does anyone know what screws I should order if I'm adding the additional platforms via those 3D printed pieces?

[@HNXMedia]

They're M4x8mm screws

[@godinneludovic7781]

Hello, mine was provided with light system (strimsav). But I don't know how to fix it ?? the top part is flat and the light system can be attached but not compatible... Ikea did a mistake or .. ?

[@mariannecohn9366]

are there holes in the back glass sheet of glass - I would like to use a mirror cut to size - cheap - drilling holes -expensive

[@HNXMedia]

There are no holes in the back glass panel. You could replace it with a mirror of the same size or you could get some of that "limo tint" film and mirror it like that. Just an idea.

[@allywat3306]

My door is stuck open when I put the door on the hinge. What could I do?

[@HNXMedia]

I know it sounds silly, but check to make sure the door is not on backward. Next I would check that the cabinet is on a level (or close to level) floor. Then I would check to make sure the entire cabinet is in square (level font to back, side to side, diagonal across the top and plumb top to bottom). Hope this helps.

[@allywat3306]

@@HNXMediathe top is closed but the bottom part of the door is open not touching the base. I put the magnets on and it closes better but not on the bottom.

[@haz927]

Would it be able to replace the feet with other feet from Ikea?

[@HNXMedia]

I think any feet that would screw into the bottom should work, but I would check for stability (you don't want your case tipping over). Thanks for watching!

[@Bloomplaysyt]

My ringmagnets are not going 😢😢😢 please help

[@HNXMedia]

Carefully widened or enlarge the hole with an awl or other very pointy tool. Do this slowly and very carefully.

[@Bloomplaysyt]

@@HNXMedia 😅okay thanks

[@voydkid]

almost lost my mind screwing in these corner brackets :')

[@HNXMedia]

But you stuck with it and conquered it! 💪 Enjoy the case. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.

[@voydkid]

@@HNXMedia thank you for being emotional support along the way

[@cUstOmShield]

Thank you for the help brother. Hardest part for me was getting those screws into the ring magnets 😮‍💨

[@HNXMedia]

They are a pain for sure. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.

[@justinsanchez534]

How’d yall get them in? I’m having trouble with that right now
