Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Arrange specimens neatly and in an orderly way in the box. Top-to-bottom and left-to-right across the widest side of the box is best. The box should be a standard size, clean, and well kept. Staining or waxing the box can improve the general appearance of the collection.
Detailed explanation-2: -The appearance of a collection is improved vastly if all the specimens are mounted properly and at a uniform height on the pins (Figure 16). This is easily done by using a “pinning block.” Such a block is made of wood, plastic, or metal. Metal blocks must be purchased, but the others can be made at home.
