Made to Order Cases

Glass v. Acrylic

Others prefer cases made , which are easier to clean and less likely to break.. Acrylic also produces a clean look at the beveled edges of a frameless display case.
Framed or Frameless
Wooden display cases can either have wooden frames or clear glass or acrylic at the sides and corners where the glass panels meet. Framed cases are designed with a wood frame along the glass or acrylic sides of the case. When purchasing these cases, there are several options for having the wood varnished or painted in black or white.
Frameless Cases
Cases without a wood frame are built with just a hardwood base and a top and sides that are made with glass or acrylic. The biggest advantage of these type of cases is they produce a less obstructed view of the model. Since there is no wood blocking the view, you have a clear look at the model from every angle.
