I need to organize my abrasives. Starting with my 1" x 50yd rolls I'll be building a rack dispenser for these to keep these readily handy. I figured I'd ask to see what others have done before I invent the wheel. How to dispense adhesive abrasive paper roll would also be welcome here!
 
150 feet, wow. what is the diameter of the roll and the size of the hole in the middle ? first thing that comes to mind is a large toilet paper dispenser type of thing :D
 
I just have mine sitting on a shelf like books in their boxes.
 
I haven't done it yet, but I'm planning on something like a toilet paper dispenser, with the sandpaper running between a flat plate and a hacksaw blade to give a good was to tear off the length you want
 
Where I live the shop is almost always 90% humidity, and those rolls get soft or mildewed if left on a shelf.

I solved it by using an old igloo cooler, and a closet dowel cut to length.
The cooler holds 12 rolls, in their boxes, and keeps them for several years (for the grits I rarely use)

The dowel, and caps cost less than the gas money to go get them...
