I put the map into an A5 filifax plastic wallet (it has a neat plastic side zip) and the buldog clup grips the wallet.An unexpected bonus is that I ccan rotate the whole thing out of the way when I don't need it. Necessity is the mother of invention. Go down to the nearest hardware supply and nose around!
