I bought an absolute bargain on Ebay, I could not believe I ended up paying $20 for it. I outlayed $50 more to turn in into one cracking Lure Display cabinet.


From This




To This




I am extremely happy with the results and I am searching for another cabinet to do a similar thing. I made the cabinet deeper using some dar pine, sprayed out the inside back of the cabinet with flat black and screwed in some 900 x 600 Powder Coated Black Square Mesh Handy Panels, I had to use two, I used maspro clips to join them. Sanded all the outside, installed a new lock. Stained it and oiled it to come up to the finished product. I was at Bunnings yesterday and I had an after thought of using some LED Lighting, which has just raised it to another level. 

I have Powells, Hard At Its, Vipers, KC's and Fuglys inside plus others,,,,


Cheers

Thanks for all the comments, I really do love the end result. Trouble is now that they will be harder to find on the selling sites now, But I'm all about sharing the knowledge like all of you here.Thumbs Up

Mark this is the one, I bought it from Bunnings,  http://www.arlec.com.au/detail-2/?de=ALD011

I think it was 29.95, came with 4 strips of led, self adhesive tape on each one. and has the ability two add two more strips of led. the strips are about 30cm long. has an on/off switch in line. The additional strips sold in pairs retail for 9.95  

A cheap reliable system, great for this purpose.

Cheers
