Default Re: Sorting your valves!

Very good idea to store them randomly and list them logically, and applicable to other items too.
Of course, if the catalogue is a spreadsheet, you can re-sort it at will into type, equivalents, base or whatever, just by including that data.
It's similar to current wisdom on organising computerised data - basically, make sure the filenames are logical, then just chuck them all in together; use 'search' to locate what you want. Goes against the grain a bit, but it really is more efficient than careful hierarchical filing!
