    Does anyone know who in Ireland makes or supplies acrylic display cases, I am currently making a Revell model of the Aiva cruise ship 1.400 scale, its 25 inches long etc, got a display case last year from Marks models for another model 1.700 scale but they dont have any for my size model. Got a quote from a company in the UK who make them 70 pounds + VAT and 40 postage (very dear).

    Any help appreciated, I will post pics when its finished.

    As I got no replies I guess like me know one knew where to get a display case made for a large model in Ireland, after a lot of searching where prices in the UK were off the wall costing in the region of 150 pounds for an acrylic case I found a company in Galway who will make a display case from acrylic to your spec, I got a lovely one for my model for 46 Euro I will post when the ship is finished.

    Here is the company link in Galway http://www.dynasigns.ie/
