I posted this model (my one and only ship) before, but it had a custom case I made that was put together with corner pieces and angle brackets. It served the purpose, but was not sturdy and I hated looking at the hardware. I decided to try my hand with solvent welding for acrylic. And let me tell you... that is NOT easy. But, despite the errant splashes here and there, I'm thrilled with it and it's certainly better than the old one. Much more sturdy. Cats can, and do, jump on top of this and it's no problem. And this is waaaaaaay cheaper than a prefab or custom order if you need something on the order of 30+ inches long.

Like anything, with enough practice, acrylic welding would get pretty easy and now I'm looking around for other things that might need a case.
