Bonnie--
I've had the same thought. There are some bigger types of printers drawers out there. I've thought about making a coffee table display out of one of these. Some legs, some glass and presto.

I was at a crafts store looking for a display case. They had these cases called shadow boxes, kind of like a real deep display case made with some nice wood. With some legs, these would make a cool end table or small coffee table. Making one yourself would make it unique, though. I would think if you Googled "glass top coffee table plans" you would find something. Ron

I've also seen the shadow boxes at the hobby stores, and wondered if it'd be possible to create a frame on legs that the shadow box could rest inside. That way you could swap the boxes out for vaiety or for special events etc... I'll try and draw up a pic to show you what I mean.

And like I said, you could have several boxes the same size that you could swap out whenever you wanted without disturbing your display.

Hi All
I made this a couple of years ago from an exsisting pine coffee table and an antique printers drawer.I had the glass top custom cut.I put all of my decent finds in to display.It`s a great conversation piece everytime folks come over.The pics are`nt great but you can get the idea.
Cheers
Marc
