Surround myself with familiar tools and keep workspace orderly. Owning a moving parts mechanical machine definitely made my workspace clean. Cats out! during printing.
I use nail filer as sand paper for tiny model and IKEA organizer with a hole on the lid for drop-on-the-floor spool feeder. It works very well and keeps cat hair away.
I catalogue each pieces with printing setup details written on it or on the small sealable bags so I can see print samples (mostly epic fail pieces). Also so keeping a shared project notebook informs me and EJ experiments and results we ran individually. Did you ever done journal exchange with your best friend when you were young? It’s kinda like that… I think…
