justajesuschick Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 (edited) Received another PM asking if I would share my excel template. HAPPY to do so but have had to email it to those who have asked. Decided to make images of it since I cannot upload an excel spreadsheet here (sure hope they are readable!). My sheet with tabs is VERY simple. What you add to it is what makes it so valuable-not my basic grid.I have gotten 425+ FO's into wax and have notes on every single one. Some detailed and some may say something profound like, "Yuck". I have tabs along the bottom where I document wax testing (how is wax testing helpful if afterward you cannot remember or think, "I think I liked that one"?). Also a tab for cost calculations. I have MANY more tabs along the bottom of mine. It is likely that many of you have something more elaborate that you use but I wanted to share in case it could be a good start for some.Main sheet:Wax testing tab:Cost tab: Edited August 8, 2013 by justajesuschick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kforbs126 Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 That's cool it's similar to what I do. I use google drive which I love cause it's accessible everywhere so when I was at work I'd update and research like crazy. Until last week when they blocked drive. Thanks for sharing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for sharing That is (was?) a great idea! I have the spreadsheet on a jump drive but having it more accessible would be nice, too.Great!! Thanks. I have pen and paper notes!! Nothing wrong with that, either. Plenty of successful folks here have done it that way for years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaithfulScenter Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Love this!! I have paper notes, but I have been looking for a more secure way of keeping up with things. My poor notebook looks like it has been through war! As I am always back and forth between my phone and laptop, I need something that works with both. Looking into google drive now!!
