    For those who are unorganized try it. 

    I'm VERY unorganized but even I put ALL my tools away in their
    places at the end of the day. My bench has a bank of eight drawers
    down the right hand side and each drawer contains specific tools so
    that I can go straight to what I want. Top drawer: measuring and
    setting tools. Second drawer: cutting tools (saws, shears, files).
    Third drawer: hammers and punches (centre punch and.925 punch).
    Fourth drawer: bezel mandrels. Fifth drawer: soldering paraphenalia
    (solder panels and strips, flux, tweezers, pick, etc). Sixth drawer:
    polishing paraphenalia. Seventh drawer: miscellaneous. Eighth drawer:
    heavy tools such as bench block, brass dapping block and punches, and
    soldering aids such as third hand. I actually find that end of day
    routine of putting things in their places and switching all the
    electrics off strangely therapeutic and it sets me up for the
    following day. It's probably the only aspect of my life that is
    somewhat organized!
