bored today so,i decided to work on my relic display case.picked this up at the salvation army for $5 was filled with different types of beans to be hung on the wall.took the plexi glass off,dumped the kidney beans,corn kernals ,cinnamon sticks etc.saved some styro foam from a box and worked on it today.gonna hook a wire on the back and hang it on the wall

Nice Dave! how did you get everything to stay in place? is it pressed between the plexi and Styrofoam?

Wow Dave , such a great detectorist and so "handy" too ... i can't for the life of me understand why some gal hasn't snatched you up already


oh by the way i'm a cat whisperer and i can tell by the look on yours in that picture he's not amused :lol:

very nice display :clapping:

Very nice display case. I see you had plenty of supervision. One of my 7 cats would have been in it and on it and I would never have finished (sanely)!

:shocked03:....I know that is only a small part of your "collection", and I've been admiring your finds over the years (especially through that video you did a few years ago)....but to see such an awesome assortment of fantastic relics...completely blows the mind....

And a great salvage job converting that into a display case too!:thumbsup01:

Great save there Dave! Truly in the spirit of a detectorist, taking something and restoring it to a useful function...!
