To design the display cabinet I started with the legs. To do this I used the Pro Boolean tool. The way this works is by first creating two shapes. First the shape you want to cut into, and secondly the shape your going to use to cut the shape.

Both objects |
The next step is to move the second object into the 1st, covering the section you want to cut into. Then by selecting the first object and going onto the compound shape tab you can select the Pro Boolean tool.

Objects n overlapping |
After selecting Pro Boolean, the next step is to select the "Start picking" option and then select the second object (the cutting tool). This will then cut the shape into the first object.

This helped to create the wooden corners of the display table. The next step was to add a long cylinder to create the basic leg shape. Once this was done I moved on to create the basic shape for the display cabinet and added the lefs to the bottom.

Display cabinet outer case |
To create this outa case I made a box shape, moved the vertexs to create the triangular shape and then used the inset and extrude tool to create the inside space. The next step was to create an inner layer that will be used to mimic the glass case.

Glass layer |
The final step was to create the wooden top finish to go over the top of the glass case. This was done by making a copy of the box, cutting the top layer off and then extruding it out to give it depth. I then used the chamfer tool to round the edges and fit it to the display cabinet.
