At the beginning of May I built some display cases in the table saw room. Since then, I have mostly been sorting through LEGO and working on one or two other projects, but I have also been making progress here too.
My main concerns for covering the display cases are cost, durability and the perimeter seal, so I'm going with acrylic panels which I can hold in place with a few screws. I had the panels cut to size at TAP Plastics in El Cerrito, and I drilled the holes myself. I actually bought a special drill bit for use with plastics, but I managed to break it after just a couple of holes; fortunately, a regular drill bit, on a slow setting, worked fine.
I installed self-adhesive "furry" weather-stripping at the perimeter of each cabinet. I am hoping this will contribute to a dust-tight seal.
