Huh? Why is that so, if I may ask?

Oh I see... Yes, I was able to do just that last night. Thanks a lot.

I'd say it's 90% done. Fixed sagging hinges due to absence of 2 bolts. Attached acrylic sheet on top to allow natural lighting. Just waiting for Steve Goldberg to ship my bolts to attach it with (again, thanks Lloyd Rose, for the lead).

Sanded bottom main shelf, though still with minor signs of corrosion / wear (little black spots).

Installed locks. Thoroughly sanitized and wiped down. Tomorrow, acrylic sheets will be installed together with my humble Oakley collection. I will update this post with a picture of the final presentation.

Don't put Geckos, Birds, Dogs, or any animal in there. JK The case looks beautiful you just added value to it. How much did you pay for the acrylic and materials to fix it?

I won't, don't worry LOL! The acrylic shelves (4 sheets) came up to around CAD218. I had to spend more for that than the cabinet itself, haha. Bolts I ordered from Steve Goldberg, cleaning materials (Scotch Brite pad), locks came up to over CAD100. So all in all, over CAD400 (including the cost of the cabinet) for the finished product, that's just over USD300 for everything in total.

Lets see some updated photos when you got the shelves and glasses in there. I wish I had a double wide. My wife does not however

And here it is... The finished product. Finally got the bolts from Steve Goldberg. Thanks, Steve! And thanks Lloyd Rose for the lead. No more missing bolts!

3rd shelf from the top showcases my wife's Oakleys. The rest are mine. Mostly Oakleys, some are Ray-Ban, Arnette, Activist Eyewear, Maui Jim.

Pretty satisfied with how it looks. Now, I can tick off a big one from my to-do list this summer, at last!

Looks great! A rare case for sure up here in Canada.

Worth the investment. Love those double wide cases. Steal of a deal IMO

Store those soft vaults in the bottom portion and add some more sunnies or cool O gear

Congrats
