Title: Displaying and storing ?
Post by: Dryland on May 04, 2013, 10:26:15 PM
How or in what do you display your finds? I know they do cases and cabinets for coins
but what about any artefacts you find ?

Seen this post and realise it's old but thought I'd share what I do.

All for under £40! I purchased some make-up drawers from ebay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Large-6-Tier-Clear-Acrylic-Cosmetic-Makeup-Organiser-Storage-Box-Case-6-Drawers-/152218291848?hash=item2370eace88:g:hfcAAOSwAuZX340R (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Large-6-Tier-Clear-Acrylic-Cosmetic-Makeup-Organiser-Storage-Box-Case-6-Drawers-/152218291848?hash=item2370eace88:g:hfcAAOSwAuZX340R)

Then some 6mm black foam from here http://uk.farnell.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=15001&langId=44&urlRequestType=Base&partNumber=1687866&storeId=10151 (http://uk.farnell.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=15001&langId=44&urlRequestType=Base&partNumber=1687866&storeId=10151) which I then cut down to fit the draws.

I then label the finds I can identify

Only been detecting since last September but loving it ;D

Haha Scara. I've got a few tubs of finds as well. Not quite worthy of properly displaying though  ;D

Good post mate,I was wondering the same myself.I have the stuff that I find in sample bags from work,the bags have labels on them but its not at all tidy.Dont have much anyway,only started to do it properly after Christmas and now my lands are with either grass or crops on them so I'm waiting for some of it to be ploughed next month.😕
Busy at work anyway,with spring lambing,managing a couple of hours detecting every other week,not ideal but better than nothing 👍
