Wherever you happen to be working, set down a rag as a temporary workbench. Rather than tools kicking around the floorboards or underfoot, it is so much more sensible to have a defined space. Also, from the Department of Always Be Knolling, point all the tools in the same direction. It is easier to see what you have and what you need.
This tip gets better...
When you are done working, you just roll up the rag as a pseudo tool roll to get the items back their respective homes. Use the same rag to wipe the tools as you put them away. Wipe hands.
This is a hundred dollar tip. Believe it, brother.
