Display Shelf For Horns
« on: February 29, 2012, 05:45:09 PM »
  I was thinking of a way to get horns up off the table at shows (Read make room for more) this is what I came up with.

That is sweet... may I make a suggestion? Below the bottom shelf put a skirt on the front, that will give you a place to hide things, business cards, paper + pen, bags, food and then no one will be able to see your clamps that will hold it to the table.... now I may just have to go make one for myself....very nice idea, Tim.

Tim, your shelf idea is a very good one. I really like your use of the tines to lock the shelf tenons. I,m sure a lot of folks will copying it. I know I will if that is OK? ....JZ

I like the wedged tenons with antler tips, nice touch and I assume this all comes apart for transporting easily?

 I thought it might come in handy for others too. Yes, the four tines come out and it comes apart. Griz, I like the skirt idea, I may add one. Since it only gets used at shows, I set it up so it will hang also.

 Thanks, Tim C.

Very nice Mr. C. but with the way you turn out horns I can just imagine you will need to add more floors to that "high rise"  ;D

That's a great idea, Tim, and well done (of course) as always.
I will guess it is what. 6' long and 4' high?  The only problem I see is talking to customers from in back of the table.  On a 6' table, that fills the entire thing.  On an 8' table, that gives you a 2' space to conduct business from.  Kind of awkward.
At least, that is what I have found from building tall table displays in the past.

These days many professionals in various trades have adopted a more personal and active approach in dealing with the customer in front of the display table. Jeff Bibb is a good example of this method in our world. This display is great for that.

  It is about 45 X 38". It's 45 X 7" foot print takes up a lot less space than the 20 or so horns it will hold, plus a couple hanging from the sides.
 Jeff is a good example of being up front.
