shadow boxes

lets see em. im got to make some more. i got an extra long one that in planning. 6ft longX8inches high. gunna use it for display/grab and go operation cause where i hang all my plugs in the celler isnt good. i hang them on the wire to the doorbell and phone and i got too many so there pulling them down and the bells isnt working right. i wanna sleep in the same room as them too. i think if i had 3 of those extra long ones itll hold most of my plugs as long as my bag is filled.

my pikie top, fixter bottom. they aint goin to water, the only 2 thatll stay that way.

I think the Whopper Stopper Salty Boogies are no longer being manufactured, but Bassmaster, myself and I think a few others have made plugs similar/inspired by the Salty Boogie.

Hey CHRISTIAN---I had a thought for a box that would show alot of plugs by making it long,narrrow, and shallow.
maybe 4in wide by 3in deep,and as long as you want.If you cut out the sides like a gun rack you can lay the plugs horizontal and still be able to take them off to look at them.
I would say u could hold 6 plugs for every foot so u cold get 30 or so plugs in a 3 ft box.
Just a thought ,hope it's helpful.

UT OH,I need to go back to third grade math! A 3ft box would hold 18 plugs not 30!

they are all organized by type and color. i took a large section of peg board and ran fishing line through every other hole. i then put the tail hook into the loop formed by the line. it took very little time and the end result is pretty good in my opinion.
