As for the "looking for tools", I embarked on a "get organized" journey a few months back on getting ALL my tools organized, STILL a work in progress. I am NOT sure that its been worth it or not, NOW, so far, I do know I am missing a tool a lot easier.....Still doesn't help finding where I put it down - ALONG with my eye glasses

I found that I had to mark my drawers but preferred things hanging on the walls. However, after a chat with GB Sisson I decided to look for a home made kingpin hone that I fashioned after the one he made from his wife's wooden spatula that he had stolen. . I looked everywhere to no avail and finally gave up. Yesterday I was turning something on my lathe and low and behold there it was, hanging at eye level behind the gearbox of the lathe. Do you folks think I need to seek help yet?

I can loose anything faster than you can say where did it go! Of course I attribute my forgetfulness to the amount of times I hit my head!!!!
