7. Display tools or typical equipment in a way that tells the
viewer what
you have. Keep it simple, clean and above all....secure from sticky
fingers.
Note: It is also appropriate to display trophies from prior shows.
Number 7 is a great point. I have a lot of kit (Issue Items) with my Ferret
and always do an equipment display on a canvas tarp infront of the vehicle.
In the Army we did this for inspections and BII(Basic Issue Item) Inventory.
I was on M1A1 Abrams Tanks and we had a standard way to lay out the tools
for quicker inventory. It is especially impressive with all of the tools
laid out like wrenches and using their size smaller to larger to give a very
straight neat organized display. I also layout the vehicles cooking stove,
crew mess kits and ration boxes. I also liked the point about keeping a
uniform for visitors to take pictures with. I keep an extra CVC Helmet from
the vehicle out so people (usually kids) can get their pictures taken in
front of the vehicle with the helmet on.
Cheers,
