I was wondering if anyone has came up with a neat way to store their many rolls of vinyl? We have two of the manufactured wall holders, but was hoping for something more attractive, for our new shop. Any ideas?

Here's mine - love it!! Cost approx $60. This space holds 56, 24" rolls. Second photo shows the hole drilled in the abs pipe to insert in a slat wall hook.

My mind wanders. And that's not a good thing, 'cause it's too small to be out there alone. Posts: 3129 | From: Tooele, UT | Registered: Mar 2005

That looks nice. While we're on the subject I want to put this idea out; it's not exactly for a public area, but might be the basis of somebody tweaking it a bit. I tried it and it works, but could use improvement in the middle piece. Anyway, I took a bucket, put an hub cap in the middle. Then I put lots of vinyl pieces in it, tallest in the middle. They all just make one big loop. The way it works is that even if two pieces are the same width, since they're on a slope,(the hub cap) you can see the top edge of the next piece/color. And it's fairly easy to put a new piece in. I did this after I moved, and didn't have a big shelf to flat store them on. That and some of the pieces are longer than a shelf.
