here is the drying rack...

for short term storage, I cap the tubes with simple test caps... these are not real strong and I plan to some day make tapered plugs for sealing the tubes.. but they are cheap ( less than $1.00) as opposed to about $5 for a cap.... for long term storage, I bought several 1 gallon paint cans and fill them up to the top with the mixture.. this mixture is over a year old and I have had no issues with skinning ...I also use these paint cans to filter out debris from my tube as a paint funnel sits perfectly in the can...and i can pour the contents of the tubes in to strain it..

A good run is better than a bad stand!
