Can anyone direct me to a really simple DL44 Blaster stand. I have a growing collection and I would like to display them together. Plexi, wood, aluminum...anything as long as it is a good design. I need a stand that will take up a very small footprint.

I am curious about any unique ways you all are displaying them. If I can't find anything I may start designing something...and share the outcome with all of you.

thanks,

pastorjedi makes a nice display stand. they go up on eBay quite frequently. once i have some extra funds im going to grab one. make sure you select at checkout which model you have(ANH,ESB,RoTJ) that why it sits correctly in the front tower.

Those are very nice stands, and I almost bought a few...but, for my use and the space on the shelf I have...they just take up too much real estate. I am thinking something that holds the blaster at a downward tipped angle, flash hider down, would help with the footprint. I need to put 5-6 blasters on one small shelf.

I honestly probably need to design something specific to my needs.

What about making something out of metal pegboard? Check out Kurtyboy's thread, he has one of the nicest displays I've seen. You could obviously scale it to size, make it a single row

Wall displays are great options. Especially if you collection is always changing. I want to do something in mass. Currently I have a high horizontal grid wall to display a bunch of my helmets.

guabe has designed a few nice ones for 3D printing. Small and simple. They're free to download from his Shapeways store.

There are a coupe other variations on those.

I used one of his wall mount ones.
