Posters in the Hangar?

[WLIU]

OK, here is an idea. The screws that protrude from the walls into your space likely extend our 1/2" or more from the wall.

Cut some square blocks from 2/4 stock. Drill a hole into the middle of each block that is the screw size. Fill each hole with epoxy-flox mix. Press the block over the screw and allow to cure. You may need to use tape to hold the blocks in place during the cure.

With blocks in place, attach a panel to those blocks that your posters can be attached to.

Best of luck,

I'd go to Lowe's or Home Depot, get some thin plywood, cut it to the size of the cardboard and replace it.

Good idea, but I'm concerned that the thin stuff will warp with humidity changes just like the cardboard. I'll have to check out the sheets of lexan/Plexiglas they have; if that's less than $10 or so, it might be a good solution.

Now that's ingenious, Wes. I'll have to check the location of the screws, otherwise I like the idea.

Lexan is just as good, but can be a two-sided moisture barrier, trapping humidity between it and the poster.

I was thinking that one would varnish the plywood, and thus eliminate any warping from humidity, and it's pretty good at insulating the poster itself from rapid heat changes. And it's leaky enough due to its surface being less than smooth to wick moisture away from the poster and let it escape around the edges.
