I have been collecting design boards for 6 years now, many of them are 47" long and I would LOVE to hear how others are managing storage of these, with easy access when needed. They are becoming the elephant in the room! So necessary when needed, when not, so in the way. Help! And Thanks!

I pulled my desk a little away from the wall, anything too long to fit elsewhere goes between the desk and the wall, out of sight. Of course that also means occasionally I spend a few minutes wondering where on earth I put that darned thing!

I have two and just lean them against the wall behind my machine. When I want to use them, I roll the machine across the room.

I feared that issue ... and mounted them on the wall from the start. Yes, I am lucky to have the space to do so, as I know many cannot.



Not sure how wide they are ... though 47" long would fit under a bed, behind a door, behind/under a couch, next to the frig, back of a closet
