IKEA Milsbo Cabinet Review & Lighting/Dustproofing For Hot Toys & Collectables
Рет қаралды 68,791
4 жыл бұрынThis video goes through the Milsbo cabinet from Ikea that I use to display my Hot toys and Sideshow figures along with some other collectables. I also go through how and what I used to dustproof and light the cabinet. Links for everything I used is down below. Hope you enjoyed the video.

The Nerd Collector good. One of my other Detolfs has side panel bowing. It’s scaring me. But I read that tempered glass sometimes bows and may not break depending on how sever the bow. But still worried. It’s fricken loud when it pops and a pain to clean up. I’d go get a Milsbo now but IKEA is closed. And my local one is booked up for curb side pickup and for someone reason I can’t get the cabinet shipped. Just going to have to wait and hope they open store soon to the public.

Thank you for the video. Nicely done. I bought this cabinet and drill bit to get the lighting in there. However, I chose the Govee RBIC to show off different colors. the Weather stripping has been hard to come by! Still waiting for Amazon to deliver my order. Couple questions: 1) What is the Foam Sheet primarily used for? 2) What do you use to clean the cabinet glass with? I must be using a bad technique as I can't get smears off.

I really like the wider cabinets, but I wanted something with the frameless front. I am wondering if I could skip installing the doors and put a piece of plexiglass on the front and use magnets to secure it. Do you think that would be possible? On the Ikea site it says they are made of both aluminum and steel. Do you know if the vertical pieces of the frame are steel/magnetic? I am guessing they are since the door magnet sticks to the horizontal piece.
