I know where your coming from Pard, I/we all have this problem with horizontal surfaces, I guess this is why I built so many benches, clutter tends to drive me nuts, and It's not so much the mess that bothers me , it's not being able to put my hands on tools or parts when I need them, when working on my guns, so I have two benches for this, one for my long guns and one for hand guns, but I do know what your saying, I know friends that can have a cluttered bench, and still know where everything is at, for me as I've gotten older I like making things as easy as possible for my self, and when loading, it takes the stress out, and makes it a ton more safer when you have less to look at on your bench.
Take care, and have a great weekend
