There is a first time for everything…and…this is the first time I ever saw a thing like this…'way cool Don L...!'

Now that is what I consider art work! Nice job Don L.

[bullseye67]

Awesome! Excellent way to display/recycle some trophies. Where did you get the idea Don L.?

[Earlwb]

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.

Those are both nice boards. I just put mine in a plastic box. I do have a pin fire or 2 to.

Don L,
I remember having to form 7mm BR from 308 cases. Those were the days....

Real beauty

[Don L]

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).

Leebuilder, just how big is the rig that cast them hooks?

[leebuilder]

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.
Bigger bait, bigger fish
Be well

Don L....love it

[Hamish]

Don L's diorama is just outstanding.

[Littlewolf]

personally I thought it was a two prong trap drag for coyotes or bobcat trapping

[Southo]

Caught at just the right moment. Very cool!

"Thats a nasty looking lineup there…can't help having the unnerving thought of one of those coming at me 'faster than a speeding boolit'…next thought…Why am I standing here knocking on St. Peters gate…how the heck did I get here?"
