My problem with a closet is that it would be too easy to set or hid it in a poorly accessible corner, and for it to end up a tangled mess. I see an SMC as forcing a certain level of organization on me, whether I like it or not.

If we do get the opportunity to build next year, I will be leveraging the hive mind of the empeg community as we wade through the options and decision we'll be making, because this is the smartest group of people I know.
