Franklin Mint E-One Tower question

Does anyone know where I can get a plexi-glass display cover for the FM E-One tower?

Thanks!

We have Michael's Craft Stores on the west coast. I was going to measure the E-One Tower then see what I could find.

Over here in the UK, I went to one of those small firms who make and fit shop signs, as they work with plexiglass a lot.
They made everything to the exact size, mitred the edges, and bonded them together, and all I had to do was to make wood bases.
I started this over 25 years ago when I used to make the AMT truck and trailer kits in 1/25th scale, and those ones are still in perfect condition.

I purchased a Display Case that the FM E-One fits perfectly from Die-Cast Direct. It's Imex Case #2530 that sells for $18.95 + shipping. Size is 5 7/8 Wide X 5 7/8 High X 19 3/4 inches long.

Thanks for the heads up on die-cast direct.

Tim,

It is I who posted the reminder. Just a little poke in fun. I guess that didn't go over too well.

In any case, yes what goes on between parties is their business. However in this instance you came and made a post here on this board warning us to avoid Diecast Direct. You aired your laundry. Helpful Henry was just pointing out that less than 2 weeks ago YOU had a problem with that retailer. You didn't remember so I thought I would remind you.

I think you owe Danny in TX an apology. I have thick skin and I can take the heat. Goosfraba my man.

I think it is best that if you would like to continue this conversation it is taken off the board. Please feel free to email me directly.

So you must be a Pimply Faced Punk Kid...Right????
Or a Liar??
If you dont lie you dont need to remember what you lied about....Confusious of Canada!!

Josh,
Sorry to interrupt your thread with this idjit.

Re: Franklin Mint E-One Tower question

Even more intriquing, is the fact that he says on another site, he has already been buying his display cases from past time anyway.

Re: Franklin Mint E-One Tower question

So??? Why would you post that from another site????? I was just going to see what Michaels had since Chico Ca is the next town over from me. The ones from Past-Time hobbies are for my DP's only. Not for my Franklin Mints. That is a whole nother story.
