how do you store long strips of sandpaper for Performax or V-Drum sanders?

Jesse That’s pretty much what I do with my rolls but I keep them in a drawer in my cabinet. Some have made a box with cubbies that attach in the legs. I was going to do that but it’s just another place for saw dust to collect. You could put a cover over it I suppose but I think the cardboard box is the better way to go. I’ve found that I only use a few grits and I can usually get a lot of life out of my belts so I don’t change them often and I clean them after every use and I always scrape glue joints before I sand the wood which glue is the worst thing for the sanding belts.

I buy mine in the large rolls and store them on a 3 ft length of PVC pipe underneath a wall hanging cabinet in my shop. When I need to cut a new piece I roll out a length straight on to my worktable and use the previous piece as a template. Works great… When I cut extras I wrap them with a rubberband and store them in the cabinet under my drum sander.

When I buy them they are rooled up and in thin cardboad boxes ,so why not store them the sae way.in a dry a

i’ve read that a good way
to get the same size and angle
is to make a 1/4” ply template
from one that fits good
and use it to cut all future lengths and angles
