Proper display and storing of a Luger?

[cpowers]

I found this and love it, but the price is pretty stiff. i was thinking of making my own, but was looking for some guidance on what wood, felt, etc would be best for storing and displaying.

If anyone has any reccomendations for making your own, that would be great.

Thanks

They all look like red oak... I dabble in woodworking, may give this a try. Fairly straight forward, a box with some scroll saw work on the insert.

yikes! stiff is a mild term. I can make these for a lot less if anybody is interested. I could see those prices if they were made from some exotic woods but oak is pretty cheap and readily available here in the states.
