  • One answer for the modeller's eternal question "where do it put all the damn things?"
    Ikea added another glass and metal display cabinet to the line in December. www.ikea.com/c...
    Check your local website for local prices, but it seems to be about $200usd.
    You can either buy the Billy bookcase with the doors already (far more economical) or add them www.ikea.com/c... but you will need two doors for the 31" (79cm) wide version. Or check used goods sites like Kijiji or Craigslist or your best local option.
    I haven't done anything with modelling in the last year do to life issues, but I shall be returning once I have cleared the workbench. However, in May I'll be getting my beak broken to deal with a deviated septum and in July a Golden Retriever pup will be arriving, both of which will take me away from modelling.
    (For the dog lovers: getting a female and she will be named Talla, a Southern area in Scotland, a water reservoir near Edinburgh, and most personally, the name of the road my grandparents lived on in Glasgow. The breed is Scottish BTW.)

    I still haven't figured out Step 28 for the Milsbo glass cabinet (I don't think it is necessary anyway), but it was shockingly easy, considering Im an idiot assembling furniture. Anyways, I love your setup, man!

    I was going to buy the MILSBO one since you can regulate the height of the shelves. However , since i need it to put plastic minis and some of them are like 8-10 cm tall, i wanted to add more shelves in it. Do you know if it is possible to order them separately or if is it possible to buy the components?

    How many mounting points for additional shelves are there and what would be the spacing between them?

    Thanks for sharing. I've got a couple of the IKEA detolf units and have been buying extra perspex shelves and brackets off eBay z to increase storage capacity. I do like the look of the ones you've shown ...trip to IKEA needed asap:)

      It will certainly take bigger models and dioramas than the delolf.

      Unfortunately not from Ikea (I am in Singapore, but I suspect the policy is same across the world, but do check with your local Ikea). Worse yet, the side shelf supports are impossible to get so you will have to improvise. I had to get shelves custom made @24 Sing Dollars per shelf.

      No dog, the kids are well trained and I guess you have a modern HVAC system with filters to control dust so you really don't need one. But.... you might convince She Who Must Be Obeyed to let one go in the family room....

      I don't have a She Who Must Be Obeyed, thankfully. I'd never marry a bitch like that. hahaha. At least, not a second time ;)

    I have one of these but have recently bought some figures that exceed the weight capacity for the Milsbo shelves. Is it possible to modify the weight by purchasing a custom cut toughened glass pane for the shelf or will the frame collapse? lol

      If the clips and glass can be found it would be far easier with the milsbo as it has a huge number of possible levels to use, where as with the detolf you'd have to engineer your own way of supporting any extra shelves.

    Not sure if I understood correctly but the product page states max load/shelf 5kg. For a cabinet with so much space and depth, 5kg is kinda weak. I bought a white milsbo recently but I do not dare to put too many toy figures on it.

    • @forbeshutton5487
      @forbeshutton5487  5 лет назад +1

      5kg on each shelf. That's their safety rating, which will have a wide margin on it, also if the weight is spread evenly it will take more than 5kg in the center. If you really need more capacity you could replace the provided glass with clear lexan or plexiglass, or with wood.
