You are my flipping hero! This is awesome. Incredibly professional build but simply explained. If only I had all those tools! I am going to attempt this for a baseball bat / baseball display case. Thanks very much for the guidance / education!
You're very welcome George. I'm glad to hear that the show was useful to you and that you enjoyed the project. If you have any questions during your build please don't hesitate to ask and I would be more than happy to help you out if I can. Thanks for tuning in to the show.
What Fantastic work Kenny you have done on that Display Case in both parts 1 & 2. I have really enjoyed the different types of skills shown, and I hope the owners of that case watch this video and see how much hard work you have done to make it. You are a true craftsman in what you do, looking forward to more great videos. Thanks again. Barry from England.
Barry Roberts Thanks for the kinds words Barry. I wasn't sure about posting this video because there isn't really a project for someone to make but then I though that maybe folks could benefit from the different methods shown and of course, it also spawned a flocking video so it was a win/win. Glad you liked it and once again, I thank you for your input on the channel.
Glad to hear that the build was helpful. This is a much older video on the channel and it's nice to know that folks still appreciate it. Thanks for tuning in Joshua.
awesome videos mate. Got yourself a new sub. I'm not too clued up on woodwork and I wanted to build a display case for a sword so this has been very helpful.
Thanks for the kind words. The display case should be pretty much the same for the sword as it was for the hockey stick, just a little shorter which might make it a bit easier for you. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
Hi Kenny: Today I experienced the same issue you did with the rabbit being uneven at the miter joint. I should have run the pieces over the dado blade a second pass. I gave myself some time to figure out what I was going to do to make the surfaces flush. I considered using a chisle but didn't have one readily available. Tomorrow I will go back to my project and incorporate the method you used. No point in re-inventing the wheel. This is one of the reasons I subscribed to your channel. Simple solution to a minor issue. Thank you. Best wishes Chuck
Glad to have you here as a subscriber Chuck. I always enjoy your comments and your input. Thanks so much for tuning in to another episode and taking the time to chime in with your experience and comments. It's always appreciated.
In regards to the French Cleat I have rarely seen a wall that is perfectly flat. Would it be better to hang multiple shorter Cleats rather than one long one? Don't be shocked to find humps where your Drywall butts together, caused by tape joints. To check the wall before you attempt this use a flashlight or straight edge to check the wall. You may need to put the cleats on top of the humps in order to make them work properly.
Great idea about clamping that shinny frame to the carcass for support to cut the splines. That is the kind of thing that I never think to do until its too late and I have to remake parts. Shame on you Kenny... You're teaching your math all wrong! According to Common Core half of 6 is not 3. Its 1+2. :) Another beautiful project though... Keep them coming.
johnnie52 Thanks for the kind words Johnnie..........my builds are confusing enough sometimes without the bother of common core math. What is that crap anyway and who the heck understands it. A politician must have come up with that brilliant method.
While your opinion may mean something to your dear old mother......due to the fact that I don't monetize and therefore have nothing to gain by your rude comment.....it means absolutely nothing to me. Thanks for tuning in.

I love how you created this case! Making a case to protect or display is all in your imagination! I love your work!

Very good video. I liked the Display Case. You take care all the best Michael.
Michael Davis Thanks Michael. Your comments are appreciated around here. Thanks for tuning in.
Thanks! This was helpful for me to build a case for an M1 Garand. It’s a similar size.

Thanks for the kind words on the show. I'm glad that you enjoyed it. Thanks for tuning in.
Well done Ken. I really liked the French cleat idea. Those walnut splines are cool.
What did you end up finishing it with?
Hardnox Rubbed in some Danish oil and then a light coat of varnish to finish it off. Didn't want too much of a gloss on this one.
In regards to the French Cleat I have rarely seen a wall that is perfectly flat. Would it be better to hang multiple shorter Cleats rather than one long one?

That's some great advice K Singleton. Thanks for chiming in with the suggestions. Nice to get positive feedback and good suggestions from the viewers.
Yeah that really helped
Thanks for tuning in George.
