DISPLAY CASE for ship models

Like ship models, we only make premium cases. Many manufacturers marketed their products to us but upon in-person examination, we couldn't accept their quality. Therefore, although it's not fun to make display cases (compared to model ships), we must make them in-house.

We have two types of case: semi-assembled and fully-assembled. Note that a case doesn't come with a table. For table, we recommend Shaker Writing Desk or Sofa Table.

I/Fully-assembled:

We are the only company that offers fully assembled display cases. The acrylic is cell cast which is the highest quality acrylic. It is crystal clear, scratch resistant, and 10 times stronger than glass but half the weight. Since 2006, we no longer use glass for display cases as glass must be either very thin (looks cheap) or very heavy. Since our premium quality cases are made not by a third party, they are offered at the lowest market prices.

We offer four types of base below: (Note: 1/Prices include crating materials and labor (about $250) and shipping and insurance costs in the contiguous USA (about $400). 2/ Prices are for cases ordered together with a model. If ordered after the model is completed, there will be extra work involved and the extra cost is $200.)


1/ Classic, with wood grain base (fully assembled display case):

For this type, we can make whatever dimensions that you want.


Length + Width + Height = less than 60 inches 
$1,240
                                 

Length + Width + Height = less than 95 inches  $1,450 
                                            

Length + Width + Height = less than 110 inches  $1,690

(fully assembled display case):
 

We have the following bases in stock:

a/ Overall dimensions: 39" x 12", inside dimensions: 37.25" x x 9.75"

b/ Overall dimensions: 42.5" x 18",  inside dimensions: 40" x 15.75"

c/ Overall dimensions: 47" x 14",  inside dimensions: 44.25" x 11.25"

Please specify the height of the case (not the model ship) during the checkout process.  We recommend the top acrylic be about 2" taller than the ship model. 

Length + Width + Height = less than 60 inches  $1,390

Length + Width + Height = less than 95 inches  $1,550 

Length + Width + Height = less than 110 inches  $1,870

II/Semi-assembled:

We design this case for your convenience. Setting it up is extremely easy and should take less than 30 minutes. Like our ship models, our cases are made for discerning collectors, as shown in the photo below. Our lighting feature is also exclusive.

We can make this type of case for 36" and under in length only. It takes about 6 weeks to complete.  Please let us know of the approximate size for a quote: services@modelshipmaster.com. As a guidance, a 36" long x 15" tall x 10" wide is $1,250.

Light feature: All case types can have light feature. However, for the fully assembled cases, we must add a frame around the edges to cover the running wire inside. In order words, a lighted case must have a frame. The cost for the frame and the light feature is $600-$900, depending on the size of the case. 

We also make unique bases like the ones below. Email us for a quote.

Flight cases:

We can ship your model in a flight case directly to the location of your trade show for your convenience. Just let us know the exact date and we'll ship it with guaranteed time-sensitive delivery service. Flight cases are time-consuming to make so please make sure to order it well in advance.

"Received the 2 display cases on Dec 1st....the transporter was terrific also your Shipping Department did a fantastic job regarding the crating and safety aspect of the contents. The Display Cases likewise are beautifully crafted. I am looking forward to the completion and shipment of the Bluenose in its display case. Happy Holidays to you; family and Staff.....All The Very Best to THE BEST.
