Leatherwringer Posted June 13, 2014 Share #1 Posted June 13, 2014 I just received 3 new display cases in the mail today and I am super happy with them. The craftsmanship is superb and the price was so very right! I had asked 501stGeronimo in a thread he had started here http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/208469-been-feeling-pretty-blue-lately/ about his beautiful display cases. He pointed me to Howell Display Cases! I am really glad I asked him about them. They were excellent to deal with...called their phone number and actually spoke to a live person I ended up ordering three model 1007 oak 17" x 21" x 2" cases. I can already see I need a few more!

501stGeronimo Posted June 13, 2014 Share #4 Posted June 13, 2014 Aren't these the best cases?! The quality of them are top notch!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leatherwringer Posted June 13, 2014 Author Share #5 Posted June 13, 2014 If I went out and built them myself...I could not have beat the price no..seriously, I am already thinking about different sizes. I am happy with the large ones I got....but I can do some awesome displays with some more size specific ones! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BROBS Posted June 13, 2014 Share #6 Posted June 13, 2014 they look real nice but the ones I get from Hobby Lobby that are real similar cost $12 or less on sale. -Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leatherwringer Posted June 13, 2014 Author Share #7 Posted June 13, 2014 Hey Brian...are your $12 hobby lobby ones made in the USA? Thanks for trying to derail my thread bud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted June 13, 2014 Share #8 Posted June 13, 2014 They look nice! They are very much like the ones sold by Indian River Display Case Co (where I've bought all mine): http://indianriverdisplay.com/wood.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
501stGeronimo Posted June 13, 2014 Share #9 Posted June 13, 2014 Hey Brian...are your $12 hobby lobby ones made in the USA? Thanks for trying to derail my thread bud What from hobby lobby is made in the US?? I vote nothing! I plan on buying more cases this week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted June 13, 2014 Share #10 Posted June 13, 2014 Hey Brian...are your $12 hobby lobby ones made in the USA? Thanks for trying to derail my thread bud I think he means the ones like these: http://shop.hobbylobby.com/home-decor-and-framing/frames/?subcat=Shadow%20Boxes|Display%20Cases&F_ALL=Y Not quite the same as what you have....

Sabrejet Posted June 13, 2014 Share #11 Posted June 13, 2014 Top-notch! They make riker-mounts look decidedly second best! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted June 13, 2014 Share #12 Posted June 13, 2014 Top-notch! They make riker-mounts look decidedly second best! And riker mounts don't hang on walls very well (these do...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leatherwringer Posted June 13, 2014 Author Share #13 Posted June 13, 2014 That looks Sweeet Dave!.....I will be hanging mine also! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean these: http://shop.hobbylobby.com/products/8-x-10-black-front-load-shallow-display-case-209965/ They come in different sizes... and hang on the wall in the same way as the ones shown. The 8x10 also have a stand. I didn't realize posting a similar, cheaper display option for others was "derailing" your thread... Is every product you buy made in the USA? I would highly doubt it. -Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It started it with the hinges snapping off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
