I think fori means a pull-out similar to mine. There are different ways of constructing these. They slide in and out right under the counter. They can also be placed between drawers. I use mine when I need extra counter space.

Lapboard pull-out

It's over Winnie's house

Here's a thread with some pictures of pull-out boards. I wish I'd put one near my microwave for a landing spot.

Thanks, Ginny!

It took me awhile to figure out the "It's over Winnie's house" thing. I was about to go to FKB and search for "Winnie's kitchen", LOL.

For some reason, I thought Fori meant those school/college lecture room chairs with a board that one should first slide out then pull up (something like that). And I couldn't figure out how to make it work in the kitchen.

Sorry, you're right, I wasn't clear. I just wanted to show how it looked when it wasn't pulled out, and that's the best picture I have of it. You can see the little round knobs.

Winnie does think it's her kitchen.

Oh, no "sorry", that was incredibly helpful.

In fact, it would be very easy to do and will "kill two birds with one stone".

But I am still curious about the other option.

Yeah, that! Although Ginny's is an unusually nice example. Go into any kitchen over 20 years old and it's likely to have a simple board that pulls out tucked under the counter. Some rest on a drawer (they tend to be more sturdy).

Google image search "kitchen cabinet breadboard" and you'll get some. Like this one--didn't you have one when you were a kid? My mother actually used hers for rolling out dough--we had tile counters so there wasn't anywhere else. The old style ones pull out completely and can be used on the counter top or just as a pullout handy shelf.

OK, I guess I misunderstood. :-)

No, my parents did not have one. But their kitchen was pitiful, seriously, and they have never remodeled it even they talked about it many times. :-( I guess, they just got used to it and "made do" with whatever they had. :-)

TX!
