Around 1975 I though I had a good collection of individual specimens of pistol and revolver cartridges. I located each cartridge as I wanted them to appear on my display. I then marked locations for four holes for each cartridge. This was on a 20" x 34" piece of 1/4" plywood. Then drilled a 1/16" dia. hole at each mark.
Then I covered the plywood with black velvet. Using brass bell wire, I wired each specimen to the backing, using two loops for most cartridges, one for the real short ones. Then went to a frame shop and had this framed with a paper backing to seal the display. Seventy five cartridges, four holes each.
I wouldn't recommend this to anybody!
