[QUOTE="Ckgworks, post: 1543578, member: 105102"] So in the near future, I'll be building a set of bookshelves for our living room that will combine books with a glass front display of "stuff " we have accumulated over the year.....One of my dreams is to build a large Cartridge display. Anyone that has went down this road, realizes that there is a PILE of different cartridges and if you wait until you have them all to build it, it'll never get done, but adding one new case in the middle of what you have, can be a pain with alot of the displays on the market. Anyway, I think I've found a way to make a really cool display that you can add new cases to very easily....... You can buy small magnets that mimic primers.....5mmx3mm are large rifle, 4mmx3mm are small rifle. [ATTACH=full]116711[/ATTACH] I secured them with a touch of silicone glue.....epoxy would probably be better. I'll probably cut the case heads off a second shell, and use it below the case, so you can tell what cartridge it is. It's a work in progress, but this opens up for some really cool display options.....like all the lever action cartridges, displayed on a old octagon barrel, or WWII Cartridges on a old Mauser bayonet. Also.....smaller cases can hang sideways off something metal. Anyway, I just thought I throw this idea out there in case someone is starting a cartridge display! Some pictures of cases ready to go just stuck to a metal locker, and old shotgun barrel....
