As I have done before, I'm going to go over a tool or two that makes my modeling a lot easier. I have not done this lately but I'll try to get one out at least once a month. I decided to get organized years ago in this hobby and it really helps locate and find parts when you need them.
A label maker:
I decided to get a label maker a few years ago based on it was on sale and I could get a little more organized. I picked up mine a my local BJ's Warehouse where I do lots of shopping. They have more than just groceries. I got it on sale for $20. It's a plug in model so no batteries. Lots functions so it will take a little exploring and maybe and extra ribbon.

This is the Brother P-touch label maker. It's an older model so today's model my look different. |
Not only can you label your storage drawers but also your storage containers.
 |
Here's one of my storage drawer sets. It's nice to know where exactly something is. Probably need to reorganize this. |
 |
Labeling storage containers. Look for the containers on sale about this time of year. Got these from Home Depot. |

More storage drawers |
Not only do these labels work great on storage drawers and containers but they work great on labeling parts of the layout.
 |
Labels on the layout also help with locations, roads and what switches do. The different size text also makes the label not be overbearing. |
