If you're going to store films vertically, make sure they all have a tight wind or they will warp over time (this is less of a problem if the films are used regularly).
Ideally, acetate films would be stored horizontally in archival (Tuscan, Stil Design) cans. Lots of good information on storing films at home here: http://www.filmforever.org/ "metro" wire shelves are great for storing film. Affordable, lightweight, and sturdy, and you can add wheels to the bottom. http://www.uline.com/Grp_263/Wire-Shelving?pricode=WJ931&AdKeyword=metro%20shelves&AdMatchtype=e&gclid=CPS5i9G36cMCFZE0aQodUrYAjA&gclsrc=aw.ds On Tue, Feb 17, 2015 at 6:54 AM, Scott Dorsey <[email protected]> wrote: > There are commercial steel racks from Neumade that are very nice and often > show up cheaply now that movie theatres are abandoning film. > > You could make your own rack with 1" black iron pipe and pipe fittings. > Paint > it with automotive lacquer and it will look nice. > --scott > _______________________________________________ > FrameWorks mailing list > [email protected] > https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks > -- Julian Antos Northwest Chicago Film Society www.northwestchicagofilmsociety.org 773 827 8991
