It can be quite confusing to keep track of how many yards are on your sectional warp. I have solved this problem with coins. To start I determine how long the warp is. I usually work in 5 yard increments (I usually put 25, 35 or 50 yard warps on). I divide this by 5 and get that many nickels (5, 7 or 10 for above example) and 4 pennies. For every 5 yards I wind I place one of the nickels in a pile - when they are all gone I am done! If I am interupted mid wind I place that many pennies in the pile before answering the phone or whatever. I have gone back hours later and I always know where I am! One other trick I do is count to 5 (yds) out loud - helps to hear it, too.
Just my way of keeping track. Hope it helps you.
