This is what I have done since the late 90's: I block copy the main thread body to avoid having to down load website headers and all of the junk on the bottom of the screen. Paste it all into a word document. You do get all of that extra personal stuff that guys put in... their pet picture and sayings, etc.do
I've been doing that since the early FIDO and RIME days, only I do kinda like the KISS Principle, so I just FWD the post of interest to myself. When it tumbles in the e-mail door, I save it to the appropriate folder under "D:\Models" on the secondary drive (always have a second bootable HDD, right ?).
When I get a roundtuit, I may or may not clean the e-mails up, but mostly not. Generally I only need a reminder of what the post had to say, and then it's off to the building shed to ruin another batch of unsuspecting rough-cut balsa.
The Ziroli B-25 build thread is a good example, but not all posts were True Nuggets, so I'd say I only stashed about 70-odd percent of the original thread.
And my Ziroli B-25 >>IS STILL<< NIB.
