  • @sethv.1349
    @sethv.1349 3 роки тому +17

    Here's a follow up on some durability concerns. The holes drilled into the acrylic need to be wide enough for the baseplate to come all the way through with its' plastic buffer, not just the screws. You'll need a larger bit than 3/16" for this. The plastic pieces are meant to sandwich the acrylic rather than putting all the pressure on the screw holes themselves, which over time will increase the risk of the acrylic cracking.
    According to the instructions, the minimum width of your glass or acrylic needs to be 5mm for these particular hinges to properly sandwich. 3/16 (.1875) inches is only 4.7mm, so go with the 1/4 inch thickness.

    Great video and help to the community. I used the same hinges a couple years ago on the larger Pax and they are still holding strong today. 3 hinges per sheet. Only thing I would add to this is if you dont have a dremel tool or dont want to drill yourself, for being too afraid of cracking the sheet, you can have the plastics company drill the holes and the semi-circle for you. No extra cost and if they mess up, you get a new sheet.

    • @BAMCollectibles
      @BAMCollectibles  5 років тому

  • @AzraelThanatos
    @AzraelThanatos Рік тому +1

    If you want to make the edges of the acrylic look better, you can use a quick pass with a blow torch to get them clear for you.
    And from a friend who had bought some old display cases from stores to refurbish, one thing you can also do is get some of the thin acrylic cement and put a few drips on the interior of the holes you put in for screws before putting them in and you'll have a more secure piece in the end. his weren't just held up by the hinges though...and the cases were the type you see in jewelery stores that are waist high, and the glass was damaged when they got pulled out of wherever they had been and he has a fossil collection in them...he replaced the glass with a heavy acrylic for the exterior and the shelves...along with added a few extra shelves, and while it doesn't fuse the acrylic like the glue does between sheets, it semi-melts it enough that it fills in around the screw enough that it's far more sturdy.

  • @bojackkatarn
    @bojackkatarn 3 роки тому +1

    Thanks a lot for making these videos, especially this one and the reinforced shelves one. Followed your instructions to the letter and still managed to mess up quite a bit with the hinge positioning when drilling holes. But that's alright lol. Still worked out in the end. One thing I thought I would share is I had some issues with the acrylic closing all the way. It might be because I only have 3 hinges for a ~37" wide door. In any case, I just added some adhesive magnets on the acrylic/Pax and that did the trick. I also added an adhesive pull handle. It was a little ugly but I can tolerate it.

    Great Video, thanks for the walkthrough. Exactly what I’m looking to do on the bookcase I keep my retro games on. Same reason because there is now a little one crawling around the house. One quick suggestion. You may want to use the wood screws on the side of the hinge that connects to the cabinet instead of the machine screw. Use a drill bit smaller than the screw and the wood screws with the wider teeth will bite into the material. Thanks again!

    @bshthrasher 4 роки тому +11

    You obviously didn't know, so I have to make a note here.
    17:34 The screws with small threads are for metal with threaded holes, they won't hold long in the wood.
    Screws with bigger and more spaced out threads are for wood, especially the pointed ones.
    Better replace the screws if your door didn't fall off yet)

    I'm sorry, but you should know you used what are known as pan head machine screws which are meant to be used exclusively in "tapped holes" or with threaded nuts.
    They are not meant to be used in wood.
    It's incredible they held at all.
    If you use that door regularly, it will end up stripping those machine screws out of the wood.

    Very informative video. I wanted two cases for my WW2 military vehicle collection. Went online and found they wanted $2000 per case. Your video encouraged me to build my own. I plan to make a video of this build. Please wish me luck. Here are a few suggestions. When drilling two pieces of wood, I clamp them together. To get the right depth when I drill, I use a tool called a depth gauge. After deciding where I want to drill a hole, I use a smaller drill bit to make a pilot hole. The particleboard is not solid enough if you plan to place heavy objects in the case. If you have the items you want to put in the display case, I suggest you weigh them; using a bathroom scale. Nice to know just how much weight you are dealing with. My comment is only how I do things. Your mileage may vary.

      @BAMCollectibles  5 років тому +2

      Thanks bro!! If you recall in my first video there’s a small portion where my daughter is hitting the sheet of acrylic with a plastic sword. Even with that action she didn’t make a scratch on it. But as the other person said even if it gets scratched there are solutions out there to buffer out anything to make it look new or close to.
      Weight wise I’d say they’re 20-25 lbs each.
      I would absolutely never consider glass for my cases. Because I have a child and she can get crazy with toys I don’t want they risk in my home. I’d have to say after owning them as well...even if I didn’t have a child I’d go for Acrylic doors over glass to save money and have more durability.

    Since this video is over a year old have you made any updates? I'm wondering if you can add a video to show collectors how to add support that prevents a shelf from bowing? Adding a simple 1X1 board under each shelf along the middle should go unnoticed, but will prevent any bowing from some of the weighted items. I'm starting to build my custom shelving units that will run about 50' in length, 10' in height and range in depth from 6" to 12". Since I have thousands of figures and some massive things like the US Flagg for GI Joe there is a lot of light and heavy items. Your videos are among the best I've seen for tips so I'm only posting this question to you.

    I am a teacher with a HarrybPotter themed classroom. I have about $5000 worth of collectibles. I am moving from elementary school (where I had everything displayed out in the open) to middle school (where I have been told students grow sticky fingers). I wanted to still display my stuff, but have it protected, so I thought, why not put plexiglass on the front side of my display cubes that fit against the wall. I don't need them to open because I put the items in and then slide the open back side against the wall. I also have a space above some built-in cubbies that I thought I could create a plexiglass door for. I want to make it top opening mounted to the drop-down from the ceiling. Do you think that this will work for a top opening door?

    Do you think a ticker sheet will be more easy to control when opening and closing ? If a magnet was to be placed where would you think it will be best at ?

    • @BAMCollectibles
      @BAMCollectibles  5 років тому

      If you have the funds I would definitely go with the ticket 1/4" as it's more sturdy feeling and less flimsy. Not to say that 3/16" doesn't workm but after owning both I'd spend the extra for 1/4".
      If I decide to add a magnet I would line it up with where my shelves are at so it would hopefully blend in well. I will do some testing and report back on video 3 for sure. If you find out any info yourself please feel free to share (^_^)/

      Hey there! At 3 min and 20 seconds in I did provide the exactly measurements used for this size PAX. Hopefully that helps and feel free to ask for any further clarification.
      If you can afford I would recomend the 1/4" thick over the 3/16" but so far both work fine for me.

      It’s not 100% dust proof as it’s not sealed but I only need to dust every 1-2 years, even then it’s such a small layer of dust. I’m sure if you got measurement a tad tighter you could 100% dust proof it.

    Your videos are awesome and have inspired me to modify a few of these Pax shelves myself! A few quick questions for you: 1) how is the 3/8" acrylic holding up over time? the price on acrylic has gone up significantly and I would like to use 3/8" if you haven't had any issues 2) how much dust accumulates in the cases with the acrylic? 3) Any ideas of where to find LEDs for the 29.5" Pax? Thank you!

    • @BAMCollectibles
      @BAMCollectibles  4 роки тому +2

      Yea it’s definitely gone up because of demand for acrylic blockers at businesses to keep customers distant from workers.
      1. Holding up perfectly, no bends or bows in it.
      2. I only have to dust like once mayybeeee twice a year
      3. LED consumers sadly change all the time. What works once month may not another. You’ll have so personal research to likely find some.
      Best of luck and cheers man!

I'm so frustrated and lost with an upset wife who thinks I wasted money. I cannot find a hinge and everywhere I go sells me another solution that just doesn't work. I've even had handyman come over to look it over and tell me this video is a lie and fraud. I don't think that's true but I do not have the skill or tools to do this. I just want to buy a cheap hinge and screw it into the bookcase and be done. What am I missing, where do I get these parts? Lowes, Home Depot, Ace, etc have no idea what I need when I show this video. I'm not skilled enough to cut this acrylic so what do I use to get this done???
    I'd be so grateful for some help if possible. Many thanks in advance.

      Hey Greg! That’s actually my first ever display case that I bought from a store at a mall that was closing down. Looks very similar to my PAX but it has hardly no depth to it and that mirror.
      So sadly it came like that and nothing I did. If I wanted to do that I’m sure you can contact someone that makes glass/Mirrors to have s large sheet cut for you and glue it to the back of the PAX. Hope this helps man! Let me know if there’s anything else I can help with.
