I do sandwich baggies w/a sharpie if im goin to have to stack things up. Freezer bags work better since they have the writing area. Lots of horizontal space is key \:D

I use old cupcake pans to seperate all the nuts and bolts...then I work backwards from one cup to the next

Labeling would make it easier...but I'm lazy

what if you got the pan backward or something?
anyway, zip lock baggies for me. and i tried to use post it types on the wire harness and some other stuff but grease and other things cause it to either fall off or smudge the writing. i buy zip locks ONLY for car parts.
