[or-roots] Containers for Oil Painting

[DanM]

I have anti static mylar over the tops it provides a clear glass like view,
the frame is 3 in deep; all the others are covered with a new cloth painters
tarp to keep the dust off.
   Its so dusty in this trailer house that even dusting daily it looks like
we dont dust.
I will look to professional storage on the net tomorrow.
