I found this, but open to suggestions. Does anyone know of a decent one around, or under $100 bucks ?

Here's what I use. Plant hanger bracket from the dollar store ($1.00) x2, plus a 10' length of electrical conduit ($5.99). Works perfect. Room for 2 rolls if you need.

Picked up this one from Amazon. Has worked great and is somewhat cheaper. I have three rolls hanging from the ceiling.

Thanks for this awesome DIY. Exactly the project I was hoping to conquer this weekend.

Cheers.


I have cameras and lenses that I use to take photographs.

It seems like weight of the paper against the wall might be enough friction to keep it from unrolling on its own (good thing). Have you found that to be the case? I'm currently using "J" hooks on superclamps, but I also have to use clamps on the roll itself to keep it from unrolling.

You're quite right, I don't need to use clamps, at least with the one roll. I actually have the black seamless roll on the opposite side of that same beam.

Very nice... I have two sets of three U-bolts mounted to 2x4's that I was planning on attaching to my floor joists to give me the ability to hold up to three rolls, but I was still trying to figure out a good way to keep them from unrolling without having to use the clamps. I think I might just scrap them and steal your idea instead.
