Showoff: BSG Rank Display & Patch Displays

[silverskyes402]

I just finished this display for my Battlestar rank collection. I got a pretty good glass frame from Michaels, cost like $6 and them used some extra Turbo vest material I had left over, i really think they shine when displayed against the vest material, there are also a couple shots of some patch displays i'm working on with custom cut corner matting, hope ya like!

Bumping this from the dead with a question.

I'm planning on displaying a set of New York City Department patches and was wondering what you used to stick the patches on?

I have no experience with cutting mats, so I'm probably going to source that at Micheal's or some local business.

Just to help a little bit, I own several hundred patches , many of which I have framed... I use double sided sticky tape to put mine on the matting. They sell little square tabs of it for hanging posters on walls that are light tack so it doesnt peal paint

I've used a small dab of lowtemp hot glue in the past too. And regular strength double sticky tape rolls (but if you ever move the patches you might tear the matting or the iron-on glue off the back of the patch with that)

Yea, I used a similar product, its a small square of sticky adheasive from 3m, its easily removable though so it doesent screw up thr patches, they come in large sheets with pull off squares. I also used the double sided tape method too.
