Not the poster you asked, but I keep one at the end of a notebook for exactly this reason: I don't have to guess how much space it will need.

Okay, this works!

I have thought about this in the past, keeping it all documented on notebooks, but indexing is one part that has made me question how to organize them.

Thank you!

And you write it backwards from the end? Otherwise I don't see how this solves the issue.

Yes? I've also considered doing the index only when the notebook is full, allowing 10 pages or so. Haven't tried it yet.
