I was impressed by the Artist Opus model display cases, but wanted something that better fit my space. These are based on a generic 8x10" picture frame that costs about $1 each. You will need to cut the glass yourself for the shelves or have a local hardware store do it. You need two at minimum, one for the front glass and a second for the shelves. I designed it to support glass or acrylic shelves up to 4mm thick. The thicker shelves catch more light and give a better presentation, but the material may not be available to everyone.

The frame is presented as a single piece for a 300x300 printer or larger. I have included channels for 3mm rods if you want/need to split the print for smaller printers. I recommend using a higher infill to eliminate any sagging.

Use standard high-density LED strips for the best light coverage. I used a WLED-compatible controller with my displays.

I also included options to add drawers and a version that is all drawers.
The face frame is held on with 16 6x3mm magnets.

Currently, it is set up as a shelf mount display, but I will offer options for wall mounting in the next update and possibly more sizes.
