OK, all I have here is the camera on my phone so forgive the blurry pic
but the "camera" wanted to focus on the floor rather than the damper
rack.  My rack is narrow enough that the felts fit on either side of it
and only the wood blocks rest on the rail.

List,

 

Damper felt is (According to Eric S.) negatively impacted by placing the
dampers in a holder where the felt is resting on the holder. This is why
they use trays where the dampers rest upside down (wires pointing to the
ceiling). HOWEVER, after dropping a tray and scattering dampers all over
I came up with this idea (attached). 

 

Place dampers in the tray (through the holes) then put on the upstop
rail, then flip it over. This way if you don't get around to the job for
a few weeks (months?) the felt is not ruined. Very easy to use and to
make. Although it does look a bit funny.
