CUSTOMER SPOTLIGHT
This month we’re featuring a project by Scott Douglas, who used the aluminum he got from Speedy to make the shelves for these two diecast display cases.

He says: “I used 1/8” x 2.5” aluminum from Speedy Metals to create shelves for two diecast display cases. One is 18”x24” has a speed limit sign background and the other is 24”x36” has an original painting as the background. The remainder of the cases are wood and glass, but the aluminum is a good way to get a strong shelf with a thin profile that didn’t need to be painted.”
