More update:
I did not like using the Cableboss staple gun and insulated staples because it was hard for me to use (hard for me to pull the trigger) and when I tested it, it worked, but it was very hard for me to remove the insulated staples from a plywood board. This might be a great product for someone who is 100% sure of where he wants his wires to be permanently fixed, but I'm not like that. I may have reasons to move wires in the future.
My new, but smaller, rat's nests appear in the photos below.
The pictures still show a mess, but it's a much, much smaller mess than before. Also, now, none of the wires dangle down to the basement floor.
I found the wire holder clamps and plastic 11 inch ties (to keep a bunch of wires together and tied to a table leg or piece of wood under the layout) were very useful.
Another reason for the mess is that I have not yet rewired the power wires to the 022 switch track plugs and the accessory wires, which I will do as an ongoing, and much less intense, project over the next couple of months. Arnold
