Lack of storage. Need help!

[ctankep]

Ok, so we are pretty much out of space in our apartment. This means that i need to find a good way to make my TD-suit use up as little space as possible.

 

I need suggestions!

There is room in the attic but i have a concern that i need to ask all of you: Will the ABS take cold well? Will it crack or is it safe to store it in a wardrobe out in the attic?

 

Cheers

In my last place I had a full set of armour hanging from a coat hanger which was hangign from a hook on the ceiling.

Good idea!

 

Ok this is my main issue thou: does armour take damage from beeing stored in a cold attic? The helmet i will have in a shelf in our living room but the rest of the armour could fit in a wardrobe in the attic, would it, as far as weather and temperature goes, be safe to store like that?

I store mine in a suitcase which is inside my closet most of the time.

you could always send your armour to me... that could work nice and warm over here!

hahaha

Throw it on a mannequin and display that sucker.

 

I'm assuming you have standing room somewhere.

How cold does it get in your attic?

[ZeroRoom[TK]]

According to Wikipedia ABS can withstand temperatures down to 25 degrees C.

Is it colder than that in your attic?

 

 

 

[ctankep]

The temperature usually won't go below - 7 degrees C outside, so i am guessing the same inside more or less.

Should be fine then

If any of the armour is painted, the paintwork might suffer more.
