caldigger Posted March 11, 2018 Author Share Posted March 11, 2018 Thanks Rob, I mistakenly posted what you sent me in the wrong thread ( the one with single item trades). Glad you are happy with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is one half of a drawer of the six drawers on my cabinet (47"w x 29"d) that are getting quite full also. As you can see, most everything in there is one of a kind. Most all from trades. I get these fold up mineral boxes from a company in Colorado. Really nice way for small storage. I need to get more boxes!!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Rico Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Really lovely display and it does look very interesting. I really wish I had the space for a bigger drawers unit but we just have a small house. Thanks for showing us Doren. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Son, you have no idea how much I need a bigger place to accommodate the size of this unit. It takes a good portion of my living room and with two large glass store display cabinets, it doesn't allow me much space to practice my ballroom dancing. I feel like Harry Potter living in that cubby under the stairs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will have to keep an eye out for a storage solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caldigger Posted April 14, 2018 Author Share Posted April 14, 2018 I did a blind trade with Jay W. (DevonianDigger). We both wanted to do a multi item trade in lue of the single trades fad that has become popular. As we have seen, there has been a bit if cheating in that respect with not keeping it structured to single items. Anywho, here is the fossil fiesta that awaited me in my postal box this evening. A hoard of wonderful items ranging from the Devonian to the Pleistocene. Many delightful things from New York and beyond. Thank you Jay! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
