Spent $75 on a proper film drying rack and it saved me from dusty negatives

I was always hanging my developed rolls in the shower with clothespins... got dust specks all over two really good portraits from a hike last weekend. Picked up a collapsible drying rack with clips from a camera shop downtown for about $75. First roll I dried on it came out spotless, no more fiddling with the bathroom fan. It folds flat too so I can store it behind my desk. Anyone else have a cheap setup they swear by for drying film?

Was this a collapsible one from a brand like FilmNeverDie or a different brand? I've been looking at those but $75 seems steep for what's basically a fancy clothes hanger with clips. Did you have to do anything special to attach it to the wall or does it just sit on a tabletop?

Nah it just sits on a table, no mounting needed but those clips are surprisingly sturdy.
