Yes lists are good. I keep an Excel list of my machines with make, model, serial numbers, date alloted, decal descriptions, price, where I bought it and what name I have given them. Sort of like having a big bunch of kids and you can't remember who, what, which or why. Each machine has it's own tab where I make notes of condition, parts needed if I am fixing and costs involved. Having a list still is not a hindrance to adding more to the collection.
