Disc Storage

Post by Schoen-hopper »

I need something to keep my discs in. Random sized boxes aren't working too well. I need to conserve space.

I keep new discs in plastic, so stacking on a shelf wouldn't work too well.

What about those bins Mace uses? Where do you get those?

I'd still go for something cheap if it works well. I haven't found too many 8" x 8" x 30" boxes.


What is eveyone else using?

I found this http://www.pdgastore.com/Qstore/Qstore. ... ROD=000293 seems a little pricey though.

That would be the ones. They are worth the $$$

I use those cheap clear plastic ones from walmart. I think they are 20 qrt., but am not sure. I can check when I get home. They are not an exact fit, but they do fine. Smitty told me about them a couple years ago. They hold 20+/- discs each, and stack. They cost 3 or 4 bucks each.

MOthrows and Mace are right, those PDGA store boxes are the best, if you are hauling them all over. You could make your own out of plywood. E-Mac or someone in Emporia has homemade. Those are cool!

Tommy at the groove shack has a bunch he made from wood they are basicly a 3/4 inch thick board on each end 11 x 11 or so with 1x2 running across the bottom and the sides you only need two 1x on the bottom and 2 on each side so we are talking about 12 feet of 1x2, some plywood, and a few screws to make a 2 foot long box... add a few holes to each end and put some rope handles through it and you are in 8)

Thanks for all the input. I'll give those Wal-mart storage bins a try. If I leave the plastic sleeving on my discs, I won't want a perfect fit anyway.

If nothing else works, I'll go with the pdga bins.

Don, you are a most helpful individual. :D

Got the bins from Wally-world for $3. They hold about 20 discs, just like ya said. This will be a big improvement.

I think I'd still like to go with boxes for the trunk. I just got to find some that are the right size.
