Title: Decal Storage
Post by: robm on January 07, 2013, 08:04:07 PM

Scored a map/plan filing cabinet as a giveaway off gumtree.  Made up some mounts of angle iron and bolted it up high - this way it doesn't intrude on the floor space, and i don't need to access it all that often.

Open it up and look what fits absolutely perfectly....

Nice! Never thought of that sort of use -  a couple of years ago I scored some furniture from a place owned by a client for my office, there were dozens of those there - would have grabbed one if I'd thought as cleverly as you have!  @.@

Would watch that the heat doesn't affect the decals being up near the roof like that.
Otherwise great idea

Note to self - Must check Gumtree more often !

I think playfields would fit as well ?

Yep, playfields would fit in no worries.

I did wonder about the heat/humidity affecting them, and will definitely keep an eye on things - that said, i have heard of people storing them for ages with no problem - except when they keep them rolled up.
