August is exactly right. If anything slightly early is worse than slightly late.

Build it too early and you end up indexing headings. Build it while you are doing questions and you end up indexing the things you could not find, which is the one you want. So start now but build it as you go rather than sitting down and doing it as a project.

People who say theirs is half done in early August have usually built the first kind.

Agree. Mine barely existed until mid September and it was the best one I have made.

the first one was alphabetical by topic which sounds fine until you realise you do not think in topics under time. the second one was fine i just hated the colours

same, and the second rebuild nearly broke me. two full days of work for something nobody else will ever see. absolutely gutting.
