Great work Jerry.
Nice display and great selection of cars! I'd be very careful with the light though. I don't use the light on my curio because it's just too hot to be that close to the cars.

I only turn on the internal lite when I'm "showin' off"....
Internal lite is only 25 watt. The main lighting comes from Halogen spots 3 feet in front of the curios. Halogens mounted on ceiling........ I had many little internal bulbs inside a glass tube that was mounted to the bottom of each shelf. Glass tubes were in a u-channel facing down. The idea was great, bright and even lighting but was nasty HOT. Cars came out of that oven within 60 days and the wife ended up with that curio (corner job). She uses it for glass sculptures, nick-nacks, pics etc. but we don't use the lites unless someone is viewing the "stuff".
