Two reasons why I jump to different projects.

First, Sometimes money gets in the way. Either I’m short a part or I don’t have the tool I need. Instead of stop all together, I just switch gears to something I can do.

Second, I’m with merziac on this one. I currently have other extra responsibilities (school, “light remodeling” my pop’s house, tearing out yard crap, helping family and friends.. and that’s just this weekend!) that take most of my time. Some projects take many hours, some only 20 min. If I have a sec, I can run out to my table and break down a crankset to deep clean. Vs. a task like taping a cockpit that takes a little more time and focus.

I think the biggest thing is to feel like you are making progress and/or having fun. If you’ve got one or both checked off, aces. If not, maybe time to focus in and create your battle plan. Computer calendars are cool and helpful but a spiral notebook is a great tool.

In terms of bins my suggestions are:
The harbor freight magnetic tins for small
Hardware organizers (they resemble an attaché case but plastic) for Md
File cabinets for large. I’m graduating from a two drawer file cabinet to a four soon! Many people/offices throw them away.
