How are some of you storing your Hogo F 5 plans for protection and usage in the shop? I don't want to bend or roll them,but I do want to have them readily available and clean.

Mine were rolled when I got them, so, so far, I'm keeping them in a tube. Eventually, I want them mounted on the wall, behind a piece of lexan or plexiglass.
I don't actually use them for building, but more as a reference for "how they did it on the Loars".

My set is "distressed".
Hans, that's pretty funny. Are they MM sets?
I got mine, like John, and I would think you did, Mr. Brentrup, at IBMA rolled up and delivered by Spruce. I've had mine laminated. They're rolled up most of the time as I have no wall space to use for them. They are beautiful things.

I haven't done it yet but am planning on fixing mine on old style window shades an pulling them down like the maps in history class. Bryce
See, I did learn something in school.

I received my “suitable for framing” $50 set of plans from Elderly already distressed with hard creases, crumples and tears so I’m not going to worry about them too much.

Mr Ludewig, mine are Loar prints. #
Gail, they work better with glue on 'em, #a few handwritten notes and a little Cremona stain. Crumples and tears are good too!
Hans, is Lloyd still selling those things? Ebay?
A happy Easter to you and yours. And to all.

What is Hogo? Is this what you are talking about?

Happy Easter Dale and everyone. The only Lloyd I know that's still kickin' is LaPlant.
I got my set straight from The Man (not Loyd) and they came already laminated. #I made up some nice mahogany frames to wrap around them, backed each of the three prints with thin plywood, and mounted them all to a wall in the my shop office, about 6" apart from each other. #This keeps them absolutely accessible, and the laminated cover keeps the prints safe from smudgy fingers, although I do have to dust them off from time to time....
