Dirt Detective Posted June 13, 2025 #1 Posted June 13, 2025 Been kinda quiet on the Ordnance board so figured I would post a shadow box I just finished. Hope you guys like I think it came out ok. Not sure what im gonna do with it...anyone got anything to trade? :) ,
5thrangerson Posted June 13, 2025 #2 Posted June 13, 2025 I think it looks pretty sharp. Display is a bit fragmented but I think it'll work OK in this case! Do you have your own railroad too?
danimal03 Posted June 14, 2025 #4 Posted June 14, 2025 Nice! I only picked up a clean mid-war grenade this year. Much harder to find then people think. Great display!

Do you have your own railroad too? Thanks for the nice words..I do have a G scale RR but what your seeing is part of my Ore car display in my backyard.
manayunkman Posted June 14, 2025 #6 Posted June 14, 2025 Now I understand better your name , Dirt Detective. Dirt you make the cutaway and is the other grenade cut in half to fit the frame? Looks great!

Thanks...the half body on the right is aluminum and the half body on left is some type of metal but not original. All other parts, fuze's, M41 cap. half spoons and shrapnel are original WWII vintage. Yes I did make this
Illinigander Posted June 17, 2025 #8 Posted June 17, 2025 Dirt Detective- Also nice ore car display. Now I don't feel so bad for collecting WW1 light rail items. illinigander
