Total scumbag of disorder right here. My "hobby room" is a steaming pile of poo. It drives me up a frickin' wall. It's like I need an organizational intervention of the divine order. But when I get down on a project or rebuild it is to specs and not shatty. Like a drunk MacGuyver or something. I really think it's too late for me and I will never be truly dialed. But I'm super detail oriented. I don't get it, really. Huh (shrug).
Good luck,
Mark

Tidy. I'll put tools away while still working on same job. At the other end, I use to work at a one-person machine shop. The owner is so messy. You have to step over stuff, spend an hour cleaning crap off a machine just to use it for 5 minutes. You know those white plastic tables and metal wire carts Sam's Club sells? He must own a dozen each, everytime he needed a work area, he would go buy another.

Mine is a disaster area, just waiting for stacks of stuff to fall over and disappear forever. I'm trying to be more organized by putting partial projects into gallon ziplock bags while I wait for parts to keep moving forward. But I am stacking those up too, and they slide pretty easily, LOL.
I've been thinning the herd a bit, and that has helped, I can almost hang 1/2 my cars on the pegboard that used to be mostly empty. If I could just get rid of some of the dang tubs filled with random parts, I may have some room to move around...

I'll straighten up, start a project, then another begins....... Right now I have a Monster buggy spread out on the dining room table, a T-maxx on the coffee table, a RC10gt on the dining room floor and about sixty or so plastic model kit boxes spread across the living room floor. Last week it was just the buggy on the table and a body soaking in a tub of brake fluid on the dryer. I'll straighten up again and the whole process will begin again.
