Well done, Mark. I was thinking about making some brackets for paper spindles, but like the box idea. I like the way you camouflaged the prop for the lid to look like a roll of paper, too.
I'm curious, though, why you made the left side double walled, and the right side a single wall?
Also, are you hanging prints inside a Metro shelf unit in the background?
The Stainless steel cart was just not quite the right width for the rolls, so I had to offset a little. The double wall was easy to make - it just looked better outside when the lid is closed.
Yes, the time honored rolled paper as a top prop works well... (normally it's a quick in and out, so usually nothing needed particularly as it stands in front of a wall normally. First time I needed something was to take picture... )
This is a rigged unit, not anything for production - just for my own convenience.
The prints are hanging from a stainless steel shelving unit - with only shelf at top and bottom. I have threaded rod slides at top for the prints to hang from. Made wooden hangers with clips to stretch the prints.
The SS shelf came from Sam's club also -
