How to make a display case from acrylic glass/plexiglass at home for 1/24 scale car models easy DIY

Welcome to the next video from Adhoc cars, today I will do my best to make a display case for one of my bburago models, the Ferrari 275 GTB4. For this particular project I will need a sheet of 2 mm acrlic glass, a sharp knife, sand paper 180 and 240 grit, a special glue for plastics and a needle with a syringe. Steps are not difficult however they require accuracy and a bit of patiance, from my experience gained after making this video I can say "measure twice cut once" because I did some wrong measurements at the begginig and needed to repeat the cut. What I have noticed so far is that the display might have been a little bit shorter, something about 3 mm and then it would fit a bit better. Nevertheless, as a first display case ever made myself I am quite happy with the result. Enjoy the video and if you like it, just subscribe.
Recording just for entertaining purposes, there might be as many ideas for doing a display case as number of all dicast in whole world :D
I am a beginner but I am not afraid of mistakes :)

Measure once cut 3 times. Guess and cut 5 times. Try it, it's fun!

@@AdHocCars Thanks a lot .

[@Mrmancan]

Did you seal it or can you take the top off because if it's sealed it defeats open doors an hood

[@AdHocCars]

The top part of the display is just glued and I haven't sealed it using transparent silicon. What I have noticed so far it gives just a basic protection from dust with silicone It would give much better! thanks! :D

How many millimeter is the acrylic sheet?

[@AdHocCars]

It's 2 mm thick :)

[@Amazingeverything99]

It's UHU All plastics glue, if you are interested to see the full list of tools and materials it's at the end of the video :)

[@youcantstopme5136]

Where did you get the Plexi glass from

[@AdHocCars]

from diy store but you can find it on amazon as well like here amzn.to/3IbWTAt

[@Shooter_FPV]

TAP Plastics is a great site, you can get plexi (acrylic) custom cut. Used them when I built 3 3D printer enclosures.

[@RifatDawah]

But how to make the plastic stand 😅

[@AdHocCars]

Haha, that's a great idea! 😁 I need to think about how to make it. Acrylic glass, wood, or plaster... there are so many possibilities :D

[@RifatDawah]

@@AdHocCars can you make a video how to make a stand with plastic or wood?

[@AdHocCars]

@@RifatDawah I need to think how to make it easy and simple without much overengineering 😀 would you be interested to see a replica of bburago stand or some sort of diorama?

[@RifatDawah]

@@AdHocCars iam a big collector of diecast cars, and many of the cars don’t have any cases or boxes, due to that the cars are getting dirty, i want easy way to make cases for 1/32 scale cars, you can make a video so that people could make such and get relief 😊

[@AdHocCars]

thanks for inspiration! Now I have what to think about! 😁

[@faridby1991]

To much higher

[@AdHocCars]

I will do better next time 😀
