Pin Collection: Organized

My Christmas present from Andrle this year was a new setup for storing my pin collection. I’ve been collecting since family road trips since I was little, long before I was aware there was a whole community around pin trading (especially for Disney ones).

Mostly they reflect places I’ve been or events I’ve experienced. Pins from national parks, museums, that sort of thing. A lot of the fun of this gift was the organizing, as well as looking at and appreciating them all again. A few of my earlier acquisitions aren’t quite as high quality as more recent ones, as pins became more of a thing, but still a cool part of the whole.

For a few years now I’ve had some of the pins up on banners on the wall of my home office, but they were out of room for newer ones and were arranged more or less just by how the spacing worked. I also found that since it was part of the wall decor I kinda stopped seeing them after a while.

We found this great idea to use photo storage bins and cork board to make a bunch of much denser pin stores. Assembly was pretty straightforward, although cutting the thicker 12″x12″ cork down was harder than I thought (and resulted in a few slightly beveled edges). I might need a new blade.

The bigger challenge was deciding how best to group pins. Each 4″x6″ board could fit 15-20 pins depending on size. Some sets (like the one from backing the Star Trek: Voyager documentary) were more obvious, while other groups from past travel were harder. (Are zoos museums? Should cities and states be together?)

Now I have all of the pins grouped and mounted, with plenty of room for future collecting. Maybe I’ll do a labeled version of this someday…

We didn’t glue them down, and buttons are just loose for now, but I have them all otherwise mounted and stored.

I think I need to come up with a good way to display one or two sets at a time as a rotation on my office shelf. After all what’s the point of collecting if you can’t appreciate the items you collect and use them to retell stories?

Are they flippin' serious about ordering $40,000 dollar pins?

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/alexandria-ocasio-cortez-takes-a-victory-lap-after-making-republicans-see-red/ar-BB1l7ukN?ocid=winp2fptaskbar&cvid=d1053672afe4425ddd02baafa42dce0e&ei=14
Lofgren seems to have underestimated the juvenile nature of the contemporary Congress.

“I know what it was, the pins were designed when Democrats were in the majority so it was thought it was, you know, the Green New Deal,” Rep. Glenn Thompson (R-PA) told Raw Story from behind his shiny green pin. “I thought it was whining, and I thought it was a waste of money to redo them mid-term. We don't have that kind of money here.”

As chair of the House Agriculture Committee, Glenn’s one of the rare Republicans embracing the green pins, which are still official 118th Congress pins — just this Congress now has two official pins.

It's night time and I'mma post everyone else's favorite pin.

This micro mini pin of a generic shark rofl.
To be fair, it's small, simple, and classy. I wanted to make something my grandma could wear to a professional event and no one would bat an eye.

Here's a loosely organized document of recommendations on #pin manufactuers, both within North America and Overseas. Generally, overseas producers are very high quality and should not cause concern, but there have been cases in the past where art theft occurred.

I'll probably roll this in to my docs git repo and repost this message but wanted to share this immediately.

Unfortunately there is not really a solid "DIY" option outside of using an acrylic mold with lead-free solder; as for the pressed metal options, I am not aware of any or specifically machines that a home user could buy... not really a small thing.

Remember when #pins were a big thing? I found these while cleaning; almost all of them came from tech conferences/events in the early 2000s. I might just buy a cork board... #lapelpins
