RJB Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Its been a long time coming, but my biggest display cabinet is finally coming along. Ive got more crabs and lobsters, but no clue as to where they are at right now. I moved about 11 years ago and boxed everything up. In a box or 3 somewhere? I can also see now that ive got a 'display stand' problem. I need some kind of stands for the bigger crabs to be sitting 3 or 4 inches higher than they sit right now. But still, its lookin purty good. and ive also got quite a bit of room left for more, that's a good thing. RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Andy- Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 I love the stuff you got. Can't wait to see the completed cabinet. Looking forward to meeting my fellow Singaporean collectors!

RJB Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 Thanks everyone. This is kinda a 20+ year project. Ive still got two more display cabinets to do, plus all the fishes that will eventually hang onto walls in the house. So much to do, but fun stuff for sure.

crabfossilsteve Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Cool looking cabinet to display your wonderful crabs and that killer lobster. We finally get to see some of your best crabs, not just the ones with "problems"....ha ha. Would you show some pics of the crabs on the top shelf and toward the front? Are they Panopeus specimens?

Wrangellian Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Wow. Probably smart to not invite too many people over.. but at least you can show them here. Get lots of photos when you're done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
