It has the following verb options: gaze (lists all bugs stored on the board), pluck (remove a bug), tinker (cycle through bugs on display), and whisper
There is a hook on the side conveniently placed to hold a bug jar.

Customizations

Inspect

You carefully inspect your specimen board.

You estimate that an ebonwood specimen board cannot store anything inside of it at all.  It also appears that a medium amount can be stored on the board.

You determine that you could wear the board, slinging it across your shoulders and back.  The board appears to serve some purpose.

It looks like this item has been mainly crafted out of wood.
