I could use some good locations if anyone has a tip.
Looking for cardboard tube types with maybe 3" dia max and up to 6' as I can always cut down.
I have some patterns in Tyvek and the likes and could use better storage something a bit tougher than a rubber band.
thanks
Floyd
I use the tubes my canvas come on I only store my patterns till the job id made. so I don't have a lot one or 2 boats at a time I used to store for repeat work
I used strataglass drums to store them you xan go vertical in a corner or horizontal under a table
Many companies that sell corrugated boxes and other packaging materials also sell paper tubes. You can get paper tubes in any diameter and any length and any thickness.
I would think you could go with standard sizes rather than custom made.
Hope this helps.

Have you tried a carpet place. Their tubes are big.
Do they have to be cardboard?

Gene thanks I needed a brain rattle to get it going, will take a look around town, you know I'm talking freebies of course. joans probably dumpsters full
Paul excellent idea hd tubes for sure, possibly lowes and the depot, might just be the ticket.
Dennis that's hd and selectable on schedules, and could be any material right, all great ideas.
go pro or go home I say
Thanks Pros

Floyd:
Come on down to florida. Bring your pickup.
We burn piles of tubes every few weeks. Most are 60 inch 2 to 3 inches. I tried to get Miami
to take them back and re-use them but they said they are not worth the freight costs.
We go through so much fabric we end up with a major tube storage issue so end up burning them
or tossing them into the dumpster. I had a big burning party a few months ago and burnt over 50 of them. :)

ive got about 30 now to add to your fire chris.
peppy would probably tie them together and go rafting
