So as far as display cases go; as in a wood base and the square glass case over top the habitat base, who makes the best ones?  I ask this because I need to find a supplier for one or two because I have some pieces coming up that I want to put within such a case.  I saw VanDyke's now carries one but sells base and glass separate.  It would be nice to find one that is all one unit priced together.  I just was curious what suppliers any of you guys use when you need one.  Thanks!

Shipping a glass case is a dangerous proposition to say the least.  I like the cases made by Calloways Custom Woodworking.  They are in New London, NC...try googling them.

I had a case made for a customers duck, used the base from Ozark Woods, double strength glass and it cost $63.98 including tax.
