Thanks Dave for the positive post!
You're definitely right on the designing of permanent storage - it'd not be
hard to do. Thanks for the idea!
There are the limiting factors of thickness of stored items, and less
important is weight - to take into account . Obviously, I couldn't have
something like a deep pot up there, and expect the organizer to fold flat.
But, I agree - much of what's on the organizer could be left there - I never
thought of that!
(cutlery, spatualas, plates, spices, dish-cloths, anything in a skinny
bottle....)
In other words - all the stuff that's a PITA to dig out from the drawers
etc. It's no bother to get a pot or a percolator from my box - they're large
and easy to find!
I'll continue to modify the organizer as I develop experience with it, and
I'll share my results on Ben's site - what a great asset to us all, he is,
eh?
