Portable display :-)

Just found those old dia boxe's, on a flee market for one €.
And I tought they could be usefull for a new live; carrying militaria when traveling AND be usefull as a more or less safe display.

Maybe I have to performe them with some foam forms to prevent the items of banging around when traveling.

Here is some explenation;
-I removed the centre piece dividing the box, cut off in the height (to make sure the plexi would fit on top )
-cut the same piece in two !! in the lenght !! watch your fingers!!
-sand the both cut off parts to repare the mess
-glue them in the cover
-cut small boards to make the divisions
-cut and sand the plexi ...and you are ready to go!
Silly but amusing between two job's.

So here is the result.

Very creative ! Great idea for old microscope slide containers !

Yes, line the inside with felt or something
to protect the buckles ! ( which are also very nice ! )

Thanks guy's,I will keep improving it.
I was thinking that the saluting silhouette of sebfrench76 would look nice on the top of the box.
