I am only two years (off and on) into collecting but have really enjoyed it so far. I have around 100 heads right now with some recent additions and have usually displayed in cheap shadow boxes. I recently decided that i wanted something a little nicer to show off the heads and had a plan in mind that i thought would work after seeing some other collectors photos. I decided that i would make a rack with a capacity of 125. I will probably run out of room pretty quick in this rack, but this my first try and i can always build another. Ive added a few pictures of the rack to see what yall think.
I started with a basic frame to start the build. It will have 5 cross members. each section will hold 25 clips for the heads.
After the frame was built, i began to cut and fit the wood fence planks to make the back and frame.
This is just another shot of the almost finished product. I will stain the innner frame and mount the friction clips later this week.
This is what i have been making to hold the heads on the display.For the screw-on's i cut 3'' pieces of 2314 easton shafts and for the glue-ons i went to Micheals and bought 5/16 wooden dowels and used our shops electric taper tool to taper the ends so they fit the arrows correctly.
So far I'm pretty happy with the the the product. Its a fairly easy design, and that's how i wanted it because if it works out well, ill be needing to make alot more in the future. The whole project took about 2-1/2 hours, which aint to bad. Let me know what yall thing. If yall have suggestions please let me know, any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks for looking!
