Not HK but built some Thompson display stands

[Grease Gunner]

I have a display I’m doing next weekend on the guns of Auto Ordnance and I needed nice display stands for them. Here’s what I came up with today. I’m very happy with how they turned out.

Thoughts??

Nice work.

Nice work. If that is plexiglass you can permanently weld together using a Acrylic Adhesive, no need for a screw and crystal clear

I’ll check that glue out. I was thinking of leaving them two piece so they’d be easier to store. I’m thinking that I need to make some for HK Guns now that I see how well these turned out.

Figured I should post some pictures of the final display....here it is. The stands went over great and my display won the Judges Choice Award in the Military Class. I was beyond ecstatic to win anything being my first time displaying.

Ever make a video on how to do this? Ever share it?

 

[Grease Gunner]

I didn’t make a video on it. Looking back I should have done a walk through video of the display.
