After 2 years of collecting vintage Shakespeares and some decent modern stuff, I finally mounted them all on the wall in the garage. Wife said it looks like a tackle shop exploded but honestly it's the best part of my workspace now. Anyone else obsessed with organizing their gear or is it just me?
Two years to pull that off is dedication. Post a pic of the display, I'd love to see how you mounted them. Been thinking about doing something similar.
Nice work getting that finished. My garage has way too much stuff that never makes it to the wall like it should. What kind of display setup did you go with?
Nice work getting that display up! Between night shifts and being with my kid, I don't get much garage time, but that's exactly the kind of project I'd love to tackle. Really cool that you stuck with it for two years.
That's awesome dude. Two years is a solid commitment to a collection. My garage is basically my sanctuary too, so having a project like that finished must feel pretty great.
That's the dream right there - a finished project in your own space. With three little ones running around here, I'm still trying to find time to organize anything. Respect for seeing it through.
2 years of collecting and finally getting it displayed must feel so good. Do you actually fish with any of them or is this more of a collector's thing?
That's awesome man. How long did it take you to hunt down all those vintage Shakespeares? I've always thought about doing something like this with my old tools but never pulled the trigger.
That's a serious project. How many rods we talking here? Vintage Shakespeares are solid pieces.

Nice! Vintage fishing equipment is cool to collect. Did you end up using any of them or are they mostly display pieces?
