Storing Planes - caffeine - 07-05-2023



I'm looking for inspiration as to the best way to safely store planes. I have a handful of foamies up to 1.5m wingspan, and some balsa/film ones bigger than that (up to a 2m bird of time glider as pictured)

At the moment they're precariously stacked on shelves or leaning against walls, and they're in the way and consequently in danger of getting damaged or knocked over.

I've considered shelving in the garage, but it's pretty dusty in there so I'd need to make covers, and in summer it can get over 50° in there so I'm also concerned about heat damage.

I've seen some instances where people hang planes on the wall. What's the best way of doing that in a non-destructive way?  (to the wall and to the plane)

Any ideas? I want more planes but I'm held back by storage at the moment.

Set this up at father in laws place from PVC pipes from Bunnings. Cheap as chips took 30 mins to set up and fit more if you wanted too

For what it’s worth cost peanuts and car parks under it
