I go in spurts. Clean off the workbench, keep it clean for a couple of weeks, then things gradually build up. then after bout 2 months it is so bad I can't find a space to work in and I may do a partial or full clean up.
About once a year , I go nuts and clean up real good.
Then there is the farm shop. Never had a complete clean up since it was built in 77. I have spent the last 13 years, since my dad died, gradually working on it little bits at a time. Then I went through a divorce and ended up minus one house. Had my office in town, a storage shed in town, a storage shed at the farm, several barns, etc. So I ended up renting another storage shed for 6 months, filled up the shop, barns, etc with my belongings. That process took me about 4 years to sort through, throw away, redistribute, etc.
So, I have been in about a 14 year clean up period if you count when my dad passed away, and my divorce.
I can't believe one guy could accumulate so much stuff.
But I retired, so the office in town is gone, the two rented storage sheds are empty and gone, and my new house if much more organized cause this wife is OCD when it comes to clutter.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
