For years my work bench was the repository of every unwanted, unknown piece of crap that came on the property.
Then I set up a shelf in the shop with the label "Throw stuff here," and I had a much clearer work bench (I didn't use the word "Stuff", but you get my drift).
I put a lot of effort into making a place for everything and taking the time to put everything back in it's place. I can't describe how much time it has saved to be able to go look for something and find in it's labeled box.
This is not me. My personality is totally chaotic and squirrel oriented, but I just could not continue wasting so much time looking for shi .. stuff.
