If you were to take one thing away from this, I would say get a barcode scanner for the things you have limited amounts of and tie it into a google sheet or something similar. This way, everything is tied into a computer because seriously, who will be maintaining the inventory day after day of build season?!? (answer: probably no one) This way you at least are able to keep up in real/near-real time to see what you need to order more of with very little formatting modifications (trust me, we tried doing a paper copy, then replicating it onto google drive, but that is always going to be out of date)
