I needed a sword rack for a display, and didn't have to time to get creative. Went to the flea market I have a booth in, and found a wooden TV tray stand. Added pegs on the uprights, and used a bamboo place mat, across the tray holder for a shelf. Voila! Swords on the uprights, and daggers and smalls on the shelf. I also found a wooded what-not shelf. You know the kind, one board across two design cut wood supports. Available at Wally World, or any craft, or home improvement store. Turn upside down, and add hooks. Displays two or three swords, similar to a Samurai sword stand. Also, look for bamboo, or reed placemats, or roll-up blinds. They make a great back ground, or mat for display use. M.P.
