The All Star way to display your autographed baseball is with BallQube’s Grandstand Baseball Display atop a handsome wood base.Mirrored inset to reflect the ball.
Sure, I didn't take any pictures while I was building it, but it was fairly simple. Once you see the pieces, I'm sure you could come up with the construction.
I ordered a couple things off the ol' Amazon:
Base, plastic case, and top (I got two)
Infinity Gauntlet
LED base
The wooded bases have a mirror on the bottom, so for the bottom base I had to knock it out. It was pretty easy, I just used a hammer and wood block and it came right off. I used some bits of 1mm black foam to cover the exposed wood bits, and the top of the upside down base (I filled the exposed hole with cardboard to give it some structure).
I used gorilla glue to glue the bottom wood base to the LED platform, cut out some foam to make sure the gauntlet could stand up (the bottom is curved), glued the bottom of the gauntlet to the cube, glues the bottom of the cube to the bottom base, and then glued the top base to the plastic cube. I didn't glue the cube together, so it can still slide apart if I need to make modifications or repairs to the gauntlet as needed.
I got the engraved name plate on Amazon as well, and I wish I got a slightly thinner one as you can see it overlaps the bottom lip.
Someone posted the other day saying they used a baseball display case. It seemed like a genius idea to me. Just fyi, they recommended golf ball display cases for regular sized minis.
For less display oriented storage you could always get a battle foam case. I just buy some foam and foam tack glue and convert a standard container into a miniature safe container.
