    Default Display Case

    Hello gents,

    Hobby Lobby has a sale on display cases as of this post. 1/2 off. They come in all sizes - I got two 8x10 case's. One for my 4/8's and under, and one for my under 3" blades. There are larger sizes.

    It cost me (per unit): Under $20! Frame - $10.99, Felt $1.00 for 4, and hardware $2.99X2.

    The best part of it all (other than it being both "clean" and functional) is now when I shave that is what I see in the mirror!

    I finally uploade the photos out of my camera and thought I would share my case as well.

    It started life as spoon cabinet that I picked up at the local week-end markets for $5.

    A bit of sanding, a coat or two of Canuba Wax, some modifications to the internals and a coat of paint and it was done.

    Now it's full and I need to find another one.
