That's a neat idea. Never thought of that before.
At most I laid down a white sheet of paper and put the screws in sort of the same shape as I picked them up from, so I knew these two long ones were at the top, the short ones at the bottom, etc.
But still... one accidental hit to the table and boom..everything is messed up.
- vermontdevil 11y agoThat's why I use a white cardboard and tape all the screws to a diagram of the computer, camera, or whatever product it is.
- mnw21cam 11y agoI used to have a roll of sticky tape on the desk, which acted as a nice area to put all the screws in, with the added advantage that it would prevent them going walkies.
- jackhack 11y agoI take a digital photo and print it out, full-page size. Tape the screws to the location on the photo. Write the number in which they were removed. This is especially helpful if what you're disassembling has a ton of slightly-different-length screws. Also helps to keep a record of the cable routing which can be tricky on laptops and cameras.
