Thanks for the ideas, I'm not sure if hubby would like another piece of furniture in the house, but drawers on wheels, he might go for. I'm so used to folding my fabric, I didn't think about bolts...
I wonder if I could really bother him and go vertical. Hang some towel bar type things on the wall and hang the fabric.
Sandygirl, we checked into have new drain tile, etc done to the basement, the problem is that there is concrete on three sides of the house so removal and/or replacement of the concrete is where the financial problem is. We have a stone foundation and it's starting to get tiny leaks which we keep patching but we can't control it.
