3. I'm making a shadow box

I can't find one big enough so I have to make one from scratch. It has to be at least 36" wide.

I'm a Boomer that comes from Harley riding dad and uncles, and I have my dad's leather kidney belt from the '30s. I also have one of similar age that my ex-wife's uncle wore. They've been hanging in my closet for decades and it's time to make them ready to display in a frame with period pictures of the owners. I don't want them to hang in a son's or grandson's closet until they get lost or sold on eBay. Both are in remarkable condition.
