Most of my best Brandon Sutter cards. Missing a few good ITG cards that I'll squeeze in at some point. (need to add SPGU, UD Series, etc..) Sutter shield in a different locale in my office...

Also have a few rare canes cards at the top.. Need to pull a few more from the depths of my storage cabinet!

5 hours of planning/gathering supplies.. 5 hours of assembly! (sorry for the low angle had to remove the glare.. not sure why it looks curved at the bottom.. its not!)

Fun project, since it's been years since I did anything with wood!

Notes for next time (I'll probably replace this display with a nicer one to hold more cards! Limited wall space in my office!):
- Tighten up the shelf spacing. I could fit in one more shelf in the same space..
- Reserve only one row for graded cards.. Right now they will fit in any row (except the bottom)
- Think about reserving 1 to 2 shelves for sideways cards only. Lots of extra space above the bottom row!
- Need to cut the groove a bit closer to the rear of the shelf, and a tiny bit shallower.
 
Nicely done. Don't work too hard on perfecting it...otherwise you'll have people like me approaching you with an order to create another one and soon you'll be in the business of display cabinet making and have to quit your day job :laugh:...I assume your mention of an office is your home office and hopefully you've got a security system...and won't get lots of visitors with itchy fingers...
 
That is awesome but dust and exposure to light, especially sunlight which can do a number on the signatures can be a problem. Pretty sweet though.
 
thanks for all of the comments guys and gals!

I am worried about this. It is not in direct sunlight, there is some indirect though. Should the UV protecting cases holdup??
