Dave,

That machine looks VERY nice.  The message thread BryanH linked to was the one I referenced a lot when I did my first one (not to mention posting questions on the board).  The best pointers I can give are, as was stated by others:

1. Take a ton of pictures.  Take mutiple shots of the same thing from different angles.  When you can't take a photos, make a drawing.  You don't have to be a great artist (I can barely draw stick figures), but it can save you when you are reassembling something.

2. Label everything.  Ziploc baggies and a notecard in each serve me well to keep things organized.  I also make notes/sketches on the notecards, too.
