Thanks! *More blush.* Sorry I haven’t replied sooner; it’s been a very busy week! It seems funny to me that Levenger, Rollabind, etc. have so many great “front end” materials like covers, inserts, etc., but nothing for ring storage. I hope my modest little hack helps call attention to this crying need. (Hey, Levenger! KA-CHING!)

After all, the whole premise of the rings is that they help you organize everything, right? The ideal solution would be as aesthetically clean and handily innovative as the ring idea itself…

@Shirl: Glad you like! It definitely has a sizable footprint. Mine lives in the supply closet and even there it’s kind of in the way. The original design was going to be wall-mounted with the tubes laid out next to each other like organ pipes. That might take up less space, but it proved harder for me to build than I thought. Over on diyplanner.org, people have also suggested looking at poker chip holders and coin holders, which might be more desk-friendly.

I’m toying with the idea of making a template for people to print and cut paper rolls like you would use to roll coins — for all disc sizes, in sets of 11 for classic binders and 8 for junior binders. I don’t know if that would even work, but it might be fun to try!

Since my organizational systems are still in quite a bit of flux, I need some kind of organization, but this looks too big for me, since I have limited desk real estate. I’m thinking that something that lies flat would work better for me. I need to work with it a little more . . . the whole thing is still evolving . . .
