I have Joe’s problem too !

but I have 2 solutions.

First - the one favoured by domestic authorities - pass them (all) on to someone
else, by selling, long-lending, giving away etc.

Second - my plan, long in gestation, build a saw till.  
        This is the one that gets my vote - plus a bit of culling.   I have
pondered the question of spacing ever since the galoot group build of saw tills
last century, and I have the sketches to show a saw till which works with saws
alternately handle down and handle up - this packs in a huge quantity, but you
need access to pick them from the ends- a finger at top or bottom to lift and
tilt.

Bu the one thing I haven’t heard mentioned in so many words is - graduate the
spacings.

Have one side, or the centre, for your ‘users’ - the 3 or 4 which are the ones
you usually use, and have theses spaced for easy grab’n go.  Either side can be
pack’m in with minimum spacing, and doubled up, top to tail, or tall’n short the
way Eric was it, had them.


Sometime  soon I really WILL make a rack for them…..
