Plans for making HO storage cabinets
#26
steinjr Wrote:Basically, the instructions are:
1) Buy RIBBA picture frame from IKEA
2) Open and take off front (aluminium and glass)
3) Gently pry off side frames (they are stapled from the rear of the back plate)
4) Replace side frames with 3" x .5" wood, add shelves made of same material. Glue and screw or nail or staple together.
5) Use putty, base coat of paint, then paint
6) Mount on wall
7) Hang front (aluminum and glass) up again
Looks nice as a display cabinet, but is not intended to be opened and closed to get stuff as you go - you have to lift off the front and put it down somewhere every time you want to get something from the shelf.

Thanks, Stein! I'll check my local Ikea and/or their catalog as well. Cheers, Rob
