Protection for my pumps

Well Crash-drive has been on me to get my pumps out of harm and into an aesthetically pleasing box. Since I don't have a wall where I can display my guns, I figure this is the next best thing. I have 2 boxes with foam on the bottom, then a thick piece of foam with the guns cut out. Each level has a light weight Styrofoam poster board on the bottom for strenth.

2 boxes 4 guns to a level with 4 levels except for the NW level which has the matching tanks. It doesn't contain all my pumps but its a start.

Pfft, those guns are all old-school Nelsons. If they aren't already broken, nothing else is gonna break them!

Nice box, I need a new case for my gear.

Gimmie a few minutes alone with the Palmer catalog and I'll get back to you again.

If you want to ever hide your pumps from the overbearing US government, feel free to send them up here. I will even pay for shipping.

Man, if I had that many pretty pumps I would definitely pour them into the tub and sit there among them...

Nice collection and good use of those bins! I'm still contemplating whether or not I should build another box from scratch, buy one readymade or convert another one (like maybe an old guitar case for my KP2).

Wait ... you're protecting a BE tiger shark?

Other than that, awesome collection! You should consider swapping into a Pelican case. Just in case of you need to safely transport them underwater or something

That's exactly what I thought when I saw that, but then I realized it's plastic and therefore needs more protection than the other metal guns.
