Hi Wijtman,
Thanks for the kind words my friend. I make these cases and they are not attached to anything, the glass holds them firmly in place with no need to use the badges pins. This first pic is of the badges without the glass lid closed and they pivot on the hardware.

This pic shows the hardware indention in the padding.

Thanks for the kind words Jody. The only problem is that my collection is too small, but don't we all have that problem?

I don't think it's too small. I think this one display is perfect. I have the problem of trying to cram 100 pieces into a 50 piece display frame and that looks ugly. Yours, on the other hand is a fine example of just enough to fill it out perfectly.
One comment: if you display that out in a room even close to direct sunlight you might get some fading to the packet's printing over time. Why don't you make a good quality photocopy of the packet and display the copy in the center while hiding the packet under either the copy or the fabric?

Hi Eric,
Thanks for the kind words, I agree about the clutter that can happen and that's why I started making these. Now I can separate my IAB's from my GAB's and wound badges instead of putting them all in the same case. They all get their own.
None of my displays are ever facing or are in sunlight unless it is to take pics and the windows in the room are shaded, but I do think you make a good point that most people don't think about.
Thanks again
Dave
