PC Display Advice
I created this plaque to showcase my PC. Its all I have left of my collection and I wanted a way to display it. When I built it, I had 9 open slots I think.
Well the time has come where I have 1 open. If Matt McGloin has an auto in SP Authentic the plaque will be filled. My guess is Allen Robinson will be in 2014 Upper Deck so that right there makes 1 more PC card than I have room for.
What should I do? Create another one like this to continue the collection? I think that'd be ideal but I dont know if I have the room to hang it. Should I make 2 smaller ones? The plaque currently holds 49 PC cards. 7 rows of 7 cards (not including the 2 "showcase cards" at the top). I could maybe cut it down to 2 plaques (2 new ones) of 5 rows of 7 or 5 rows of 5 or whatever would look best. That's why I thought I'd ask. Looking for suggestions. Thanks.

If I made 2 smaller ones they'd take the place of the large one. I don't currently have the room to add to the current one. Thanks for the idea though.
If I made a second one just like this one I'd really have to move some things around in the room and that MIGHT be my last options. Not really sure yet though.

No. Qualifications to make the plaque are
1. Pack Certified. No in person autos.
2. Rookie year
3. Has to be in PSU uniform, helmet on. No senior bowl uniforms.
4. I only do 1 of each player.
So basically the PC gets added to each year as long as PSU doesn't go on another drought (no cards in 2003, 2004 or 2005).

Can the Penn State name and logo be removed from the display? It would free up space for about four more and buy you some time to create a more permanent solution.

Hmm, that's something I haven't thought of. I definitely like having it there but everything was put on with some kind of heavy duty double sided tape and gorilla glue. I think if you tried to remove the magnetic holders they'd probably break before they came off so I don't really know if the PENN STATE and the logo would come off. Id hate to try, ruin it while finding out I can't get them off and then being screwed. Not ruling it out though.
