Hi everyone, new on this board, but having a collection in the making.

I was wondering if you have your cards on display or something along those lines, because I'd really want to have a display case or Acrylic stands or similar in my room.

Does anyone have some pictures of their displays to point me in the right direction? Or where to buy those nice Acrylic stands?

Many thanks.

Timber.

The only things I have is the following:

I hope it´s that what you aksed for.

That's how I did it :

heh you could go to IKEA and buy a nice glass top table, this is the nice effect you´ll get :)


For instance I use their IKEA Verinne Glasstop Table, imho it's a much nicer way to display your collection in the living room for example :)

The table was a nice 289 Euro's but it's surely worth it ;)
Normally I have the boxes in IKEA Vitrines that hang on the wall , but that's gonna change , gonna make a 5 metre glass wall vitrine and place them all in there :) Since my bedroom in my new hom has a lenght of 5,15 metres :) a nice 3dfx wall mount would be exellent, the celling is about 2,65 metres in height so not too shabby :)

those 3dfx boxes were placed for the fun normally there stand elsewhere on plank mounts on my walls :)

@ Obi-Wan_Kenobi

Do you have pictures of the vitrines on the wall ?

I ended up using Plate Easels in the end..
At least it would stand properly but not as good fitting as compared to the ones being used by Falcon Fly

That looks really good, any idea where I can get those acrylic stands?

And Obi Wan, could I see your wall vitrines?

IKEA Amsterdam or Utrecht?  ;D  ;D

I bought them while in the USA.
Kinda just googled it up the web honestly.

I have the email address but its not in office.
hmm...

IKEA Barendrecht ;) heh ook een Nederlander welkom Tim ;)

@ SAT-KABEL

Well on the walls I did plan Vitrines but making them, of pure glass seemed to hard for my taste as that of my dad hehe so we made two planks and mounted them on the walls all the boxed Avengers + the Voodoo4 4500 AGP above my bed and all the other 5500 boxes + SST-2´s above my Opteron 185 system, I will post pics of my new 3dfx home within two weeks, I´m in Blanes, Costa Brava @ Spain on a vacation at the moment ;)

Been here for about 3 weeks another 2 weeks to go w00t!

There is also a nice 15 inch aka 37,5 cm orange 3dfx vynil window sticker on my front door, the 3dfx glass top table has been painted cream white so it matches the walls as my other furniture and really the cards really jump out of it well that kind of idea hehe and yeah the boxed + Sealed cards are on my walls in my bedroom as for the 3dfx misc stuff in my wall vitrines in my hallway my house is powered by 3dfx all over the place and Chosen_One came with a good idea too

to place the next slogan under that big 3dfx logo:

..." In this place all think voodoo ...
if you aren't a voodoo user this is not the right place for you, simple and plain."...

Very nice, it looks like an improved version of my vitrine  ::)
No glass to protect from dust is not a good ideea, I strogly recommend glass.

How did you attach the cards to the wood?
