I think the main reason is that every time you take a framed scroll down off 
the wall and transport it somewhere, you risk damage. I myself couldn't afford 
to replace broken glass or frames on the scrolls I've managed to frame, and if 
the scroll itself were damaged, I couldn't replace it at all. Perhaps we could 
assemble a photo album that could be brought to Kingdom events so people could 
look through it for ideas or to see examples of someone's work...
