From what I have read and understood, leak down test is more comprehensive and better indicator of issues than a compression test. You may skip the compression test and perform the leak down instead.

Tool storage

Got a tool storage cabinet. Is there a method to organising them? Or is it individual preference. Right now they are all over the garage so anything would be better. Suggestions please....;)

Actually I use a longer one. I only torque mine to 90lbs. With the long bar it is easy to remove. I hate using impact gun to remove. A few slips is all it takes to mess them up.
