That was a bit of a challenge getting the mask to sit in the case. Looking at similar cases, either the mask sits on a base or it's permanently mounted inside the case....I wanted the owner to be able to remove the mask without any effort, so I made a custom bracket (Patent pending <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\"\" border=\"0\" alt=\"smile.gif\" /> ) that holds the mask from the two vent holes just above the nose. Took a bit of work to get it right, but the bracket works really well; it also makes the case universal to fit any hockey mask. Since Hockey masks are not symmetrical, I made this bracket adjustable so the mask doesn't have to look slanted to one side if the vent holes were drilled off center.As soon as I get stuff going on my new website I'm going to make a wall plaque type of display. I realize the price I'm asking for these is higher than most people can spend, but I'm working on something more affordable. I'm also going to make display cases for gloves and latex masks....I filled my shop up with all kinds of woodworking tools, I can pretty much whip up anything. For a glove display I have something very cool in mind.Take it easy.Jeff-
