<p>[QUOTE="Cherd, post: 1427593, member: 24754"]I'm a penny roll searcher. I like to sort all of the cents by date and let the potential variety dates accumulate before I examine them (Feels like I have a better shot if I have a couple hundred to go through). I was trying to figure out a good way to store my sorted pennies between examinations. So, I rummaged through the garage to see what might work. I found a piece of plywood, some 3/4 inch PVC pipe, and a roll of ducktape (should be able to make pretty much anything with those ingredients :thumb<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. Here's what I came up with:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]174187.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]174188.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]174189.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Each rack has nine pieces of PVC attached, and I needed four of them to have enough slots for each of the years that I sort (plus slots for wheaties and foreigns). I sort boxes of pennies until one of the coin stacks reaches the top of the rack, and then I examine the coins for the particular variety for which I'm looking. They work pretty well. The hardest part is dremmeling the gaps out of the PVC, but all in all they are pretty easy to make.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
