For someone who does manual labor once...maybe twice a year

The display I built didn’t come out that bad. Most of the stuff I found laying around the house, some I had to buy. The main reason I built it was to see if it was feasible for this style case (only larger) could be built to house my ’65 set – and the answer is no, but I just wanted to show it off. Feel free to post pics of your displays – I like to see what other people’s setups look like.

    I'm glad you were smarter than that guy whose picture has been floating around the net who was selling some furniture and faintly in the picture there was a reflection of him standing there taking the picture naked.
    EAMUS CATULI!

    Very nice Brian!
    Congratulations on you manual labor! I would like one to hold 66-70 card range - I guess it would a bit on the large side and be kind of heavy.

    Thanx for sharing
    I guess all the engineering study is paying off - what was that? a2 + b2 = somethin or other?

    Those people do that on purpose. Weirdos.

    Nice case. If you're willing to let the horizontal cards stand vertical I think you could do a whole set like that, but that's your call.

  • Thanks for the compliments!

    Those damn pictures still give me nightmares image

    Mike, maybe if I used lighting powered by a small nuclear reactor, I'd get to use what I've learned in school. Although I did get a kick out of going to the craft store and asking the female clerk for 3 feet of felt, and she replied, sorry but we only sell it by the yard.

    Lee, I don't think this way would cut it. I'm still brainstorming an economical way to put 600 cards on the wall...

    BRIAN - Nice Job, it looks professionally made.
    Where's the pride of your collection, the '65 Charley Smith? ...jay
  • Thanks Jay, actually the Smith I bought from you the other day was my "plan b" in case I got outbid on the 7 which ended a few days later - I won that for $38. That jump in price from a 7 to 8 is image
