Hobby Lobby type stores sell shadow boxes. (according to my wife.) Not sure they have really nice display cases though.

Hard to make points from my rock but when you do they have color like no other.  Love that point man.  Next year I am going to have to work a trade hehe.

Here are the points I got at the classic.  The two on the left are from Iowabow, the big one is from Bowtarist.  Thanks a million fellas. I keep picking em up and just looking at em all day.  I spent a lot more time observing the different techniques than I spent knapping .  Which was just as well.  I wasn't having any luck making points anyway.  I think my bopper was a bit impaired. ;)  >:D Josh
