    Don L, that is a awesome bullet display. Amazing how you got it all together like that too. I like it. I don't think I ever came up with the idea or concept to make a bullet display of various bullets that I cast. I'll have to come up with something soon myself.

    Thanks everyone. I saw an example of a cartridge diorama produced by some company (forget which one) and then decided to invent a technique I could accomplish at home. It was really quite easy, using coat hangers and clear epoxy.

    I discovered I made an error, submitting more than one photo for the "Photo of the Month" contest so, if this works, I'll post this one (can't seem to find the others I put up any more).

    Morning. We used them on a hand line. 1/8 wire leader then rope. They are for tuna, we would use them for shark. Been a teenager since i used them. They were my grandfather's.

    Don L's diorama is just outstanding.
