Great Display Stand Maker


Recommended Posts

Jon Saxe (ss327@comcast.net) crafted this fantastic display stand for my 1928 Navy. I highly recommend his woodworking artistry.

 

It's old cherry with a live-edge. Also note the Colorado Springs Police Department (CSPS) stamp that replicates that on the weapon. Kudos, Jon.

And I'll add the that his price is more than reasonable... he just loves doing it.

Hello Gary and others....

 

Thank you for the kind comments. I love making sawdust... It's great aromatherapy.

Glad those of you with the stands are happy. It's awesome to get this kind of feedback for my work!

Kicked out a couple more lockdown special stands for a member. Two great straight grain American Walnut. Only thing I have to keep the sanity right now is my woodworking...

 

If anyone is interested in one my email is:

The first one pictured in O.D. with military style stenciling, is to me, the best, simple, and very fitting for a WWII Thompson. The stand the weapon is on should not upstage the weapon itself, only complement it IMHO. My complements to the talent and workmanship.

I have one of the mag loaders in maple.

Thanks for the compliments. The OD stand is destined to have a M1 sitting on it. The owner wanted a military theme for it so I came up with a replica "crate lid" The paint is actually a match I had done from a real WWII Crate.

I broke down and bought one of Jon's walnut loaders.

 

The loader is a work of art and works slick. The ones of you that have had your loader for some time know this but for the folks that are new or thought it just looked pretty and didn't think it worked as well as it looked and didn't want to spend the money, like me, you should reconsider.

I recently received from Jon my cherry wood stand for 1921 AC Colt Thompson No.9807. Jon is a true wood artist. His attention to every detail is second to none. If you want to display your Thompson his stands are the best. Thanks again Jon.

Just finished this wall mount for a board member. 1so of its kind. Nave Blue Velvet flocking with a Walnut frame. Pay no attention to my Kahr '27A1. There is a 1942 M1 destined to hang on here. It was made to compliment his Dad's WWII medals and their display pictured below...

Just received my stand today from Jon, it's made from walnut and will make a excellent addition to the Oak Park Thompson!
