I tried using partscatalog to make labels, it can be done, but it is
still all a bit manual for my liking. I think it would be good to
think of a way to link up with a Peeron set/parts list, and build
labels based upon those.

I am not sure I have a full solution, but there are probably a few
ideas that could work to make it less of a slog to make storage
labels.

sampling of the parts in that bin on the baseplate).

I've thought about taking some of my part images created for the book and
simply
printing them on label paper right using my inkjet printer.  Only thing
stopping
me right now is lack of time to putter around with it.  But I hear your

for such labels.  It would be wild if someone actually created that for
distribution.

but to personalize it for our own use we'd have to be able to edit
CorelDraw files, and maybe use LDraw tools.

Come to think of it, I thought that Bob Kojima's PartsCatalog

could make labels, but I can't figure out how to make it do that.
