Anyone use any sort of container for pads?? I'd like something like a tennis ball tube to keep all my pads but can't find anything like it.

Any suggestions??

This is for travel to fit in my travel case

What about a big piece of PVC with end caps on it?

I looked but my local stores have nothing that large, I think clear would also be a bonus.

Head shop 🤣? Visit a crafts store and see what they got or hit up the good old Amazon

Costco has nice clear plastic storage containers with lids cheap. It will keep foreign matter out. My companies plotter paper rolls come in clear plastic tubes about 8". Look behind a Kinko's trash area, you might find them in the dumpster. About 8" diameter and anywhere from 3' to 5' long. Not as strong as pvc, more like just a thin protector to keep paper from getting dirty.
 
I just use a large plastic bin with lid. Haven’t seen any tube style containers big enough for pads
 
I use a container with clear plastic drawers like the pic above too.

I really like that one in the pic. Looks about the right size for a modest collection of pads and towels. Mine's too small.

Husky and I used 2x6s. The bottom isn't flat so I had to cut the corners off at a 45 degree angle or so and keep trimming until they slid into place. It works great everything actually stays in the intended section even when standing straight up and down. I figured something would move but nothing did.

I keep used pads in quart sized zip lock bags and then inside a lockable bin i bought at Walmart (roughly 14"x6"x6") One bin for just pads and the other holds my Griot's DA's (3", 6.5" and all the backing plates).
 
Love that idea Manty! I use a combination of plastic tubs with lids and KirkH's zippered clear plastic bags.

Hey AG...here's a good marketing idea. Develop round clear plastic tubes in various diameters for storing different sized pads. Substantial lengths too to store a bunch of pads. I'd like to mount them to my cart as well. You could even get fancy and fashion some type of dispensing mechanism at the bottom...kinda like a Pez dispenser. The trick would be to insure you only load fully dried pads.

Race ya guys to Shark Tank!
 
Been looking for the same thing...something I could mount on the wall would be a nice feature.....looked at clear PVC....very pricey
