This is also true for any mechanical work on vehicles that you're not too familiar with. You will always underestimate how forgetful you'll get after even one day. When rebuilding or even performing small mechanical tasks on a motorcycle, I always photograph and label every new state of the motorcycle and link that photograph to the corresponding parts (nuts, bolts, gaskets etc) in chronological order. And even then somehow I find myself getting lazy in the process and think that I'll remember this little step or location of the part.

I often take short videos with narration after removing parts, especially noting where they came from and where they were placed.
