Step 2Insert nails
Hammer the nails in pairs at regular intervals along the wooden base. The pairs should be closely in line, although I eye-balled this instead of perfectly measuring everything.
Make sure that the space between each pair of nails is large enough to accommodate the models you plan to display. For my micro minis, I did intervals of about one inch. For my stablemates, I increased this to an inch and a half. You want the space to be large enough to accommodate different horses and perhaps horses wearing tack as well. If the space is too big, however, the purpose of the holder is defeated because a model that tips over will fall completely onto its side and risk damage.
Insert the nails so that they are secure, but leave them sticking out to about the height of the horses withers. If your nails are not tall enough, you can still make supportive dividers using cardboard (see step four). In this case, simply insert that nails so that they are secure regardless of height.
