As in, you made it? I think it's very nice looking, certainly better than the standard "Detolf" cabinets I see sometimes. Can you post more photos of the display cabinet details?

Nice collection, too. Is there a theme that governs your display? I'm no Third Reich expert, so forgive me if it's obvious.

Thanks for all the kind words. About the cabinet. It is made from 25mm SQ tubing that was welded and coated. This was done by a friend of mine. I had the glass and mirrors cut and this is held in place by L-shaped brackets at the top and bottom that I had chrome plated. The top front bracket can be removed allowing me to take the glass out to access the display. For the rest of the brackets I used small rivets to hold them in place. Simple enough and it works.
I am a relatively new collector and only started out last year. There was no particular theme or focus area when I started out. I intend to start focussing more on Infantry related items from now on though
