Display Boxes

The real big ones that holds a bunch of lures.

Tattoo, I've seen a few at shows, but they are usually expensive. I built my own. If I ever find a reasonable source for them, I'll let you know.

If you have any in your area, go check out Michaels Arts and Crafts. They carry various sizes that you can finish yourself.

Haven't heard of them, but I'll check my local craft stores. Thanks for the tip. How much $$$ do they get?

Can't really help you with that, sorry.

I've checked em out, but I always figure if I want one I'll just make a better one myself so I never looked at the price.
Not trying to sound all high and mighty or anything, it's just that I don't think they use the highest quality woods. And with finishing not being my strong suite I prefer to stay away from a lot of the softer woods.
A good finisher can make a crap wood project look like a million bucks. I make a crap wood project look like a crap wood project

Hey Tat, just got a new Bass Pro Shop mag and they have two lure display boxes in there. One is 16"x14" ($19.99) and the other is 26"x13"x4" ($49.99). Hope that helps. :-}
