Well I just got my panels today. Man the Ninja turtles looks nice!

I wish they came in a nice tube tho. Mine came in a triangle long box. Oh well Anyone have suggestions on storage boxes for their mod panels?

I use the boxes that they come in....It is labeled on the end so I know which box it goes in..I had someone make a rack that hangs from my ceiling in the garage and there is about 12-15 boxes in there now and when i deliver them I just take the banner out of the box and lay the banners in my truck...The boxes are still in good condition and some of them are over a year old...

I like the PVC pipe idea. I wonder if they make a 6 or 8 inch pipe...

I was thinking about PVC pipe as well. Cap one end and use a screw cap on the other. That'll keep them nice and clean and separated. I know that you can get 4" PVC in HD and Lowes. Might have to go to a plumbing supply store for larger though.

4 inch might work but be a tight fit... I would think 6 would be perfect...

One of my print shop supply houses I deal with sells 62 inch long, 6 inch heavy duty shipping tubes for like 7 bucks. Comes with plastic end caps. Youdon't have to be a printer to order from them, and the web site is Ameriban.

They make pvc pipe all the way up to 30" diameter. You should be able to get the 6" pipe at Menards, Lowes, or Home Depot. It would be way cheaper than using the heavy duty cardboard tubes.

I made 2 with 4 inch PVC drain pipe (lots of little holes drilled threw it, makes it lighter). BUT 4 inch is about 2 inches too small.
I bought an 8 foot section and cut in half, then glued end caps on the end of each end BEFORE test fitting.. So now I have 2 - 4 foot long, 4 inch wide drain pipes with caps glued on the end..
They make nice.... reminders - measure twice, cut once.... or return the material if it is too small for the job...
