New Display

[Mitch W.]

As soon as I find a key to fit it, my knives will be displayed is this. My wife dragged me to an estate sale and I actually found something (other than a knife) that I could use. Came with 3 glass shelves ( that are on top).

Very cool! My buddy's wife has something similar stored in her garage, but I haven't been able to talk her out of it yet. That's a great find.

 

[Mitch W.]

I should rephrase myself. When I find a key, my BUCKS will be displayed in it. The in-laws ( non-BUCKS) will have to stay in public housing for the time being.

Cool display Mitch . That things big enough to hold even all of Plumbers Buck knives . DM

That'll work great Mitch-good find:thumbup:

Look forward to seeing it fully loaded.

DM, maybe the garage that Daves friend has the similar case in it is big enough for his collection, but I'd have to know some dimensions before we could pass judgement

Before you get everything in there, think about some small LED lights for highlights and filling shadows at night.

If the case will FIT in a garage it would be too small I'm afraid.

I am sure anything smaller than a two car garage wouldn't work for Dave.

 

[I4Bucks]

ED I am thinking Dave would need one more like a three car garage for a display case. HL

It's got a mirror back

Here's a photo with BUCK 300's on the top shelf and 2 110's, a pre-86 501 and 2 277 Alpha Hunters. I'm still looking for a skeleton key to fit the door lock so this is a mock-up.
It still looks good though. I found the stands at a yard sale today. The lights are 2 "tent lights" that Wal-Mart sells for $7.00 each in sporting goods.

 

[David Martin]

Keep looking around at yard sales Mitch, I think your on to something. Its looking good. DM

Man, that looks great Mitch. I need to start sweet talking my Buddy and his wife and see if I can get them to part with the one in their garage. I know they don't have any place for it in their house, so maybe...............

Begging and grovelling works from time to time. You could always offer to clean her toilets for a year.
