We just upgraded stock trailers to a stock combo.
What does everyone do for on board storage for the plexiglass inserts?
I have always just left them in the barn, but there are times, I would sure like to put them back in while on the road. Trying to figure out a way to hold the 4' pieces in one area and not get them cracked.

ive seen people with a storage slot for the plexi glass pieces in the dressing room of their trailer.just a 4ft x 4in aluminum box with an open top and a lip to prevent the pieces from sliding out of the end.

I've also seen storage boxes in some show stocks or stock combos. I'm thinking of just making a plywood box with the opening at one end and placing in along one side of the gooseneck. I can always use my show stick to fish pieces out if needed, or just have the top open so pieces can be dug out by hand. If you have pieces that only fit in one place number them or ID them in some way so that you can slip them into the correct place quickly.

I had a GN trailer with slats and I put the plexi glass under my mattress and it didn't seem to hurt them any. After taking a ride in the back of my trailer just around the campground, I found out how much air flow I didn't have inside the horse compartment and I never put them back in but I carried them with me.
