Finally set up and loaded my Red Mist call display.  What do you think?

Only complaint I have is that the pegs are too thick for some calls to go all the way down and they are a little too close together and some trumpet bells won't fit beside one another, so I skipped every other peg.  Maybe that's a good thing as I will limit how many trumpets I can get.  The wingbones really don't work on the pegs depending on the maker.  No for a box call and a couple of Shannon's push pins...

If the pegs are not glued in place, you can twist them out and trim for a custom fit (length).

I like it because it limits me on call purchases.  Once it's filled either I get another display (heaven forbid) or I "slow down" or "stop" (yeah, right) buying calls.  It'll be awhile before it's filled.  Most of the trumpets are on the first row of pegs.

Its a nice display and I know if it were mine I'd fill and the build a bigger 1. That's what did with my gun safe. I got 1 that was way bigger than I needed. I now own 3 and will have them full soon. I really like the display ..... my few calls are in 3 clothing totes...I would to have a display like that ..

I like it and I can see the problem with the pegs as my little display for them had that issue, though in mine the pegs are not tall enough. My hands are clumsy and big, do you have  any problems removing the pot calls? Looks very nice though.

Well I bought a little brass, twist type pencil sharpener and solved the peg problem.  Didn't take them out, just shaved them down where they were.
