it might get tricky getting the plates

About the plates tho', there's always the cool "brick disconnecter" that works
great for disconnecting plates.

For baseplates that are completely flat (i.e. no vertical geographical
features like hills) all you have to do is flip it over and bend it a few
times in different directions.  Then, of course, you have to spend a few
minutes looking for some of the pieces that have flown under the sofa. :)

Don't get me wrong, I would never give up my LEGO separators (either of the
two versions).

By the way, excellent job on the town!  I'm continually amazed that LEGO
creations can be so marvelous at any scale.

Well, I'd give up SOME of my brick separators... I've got one in the
kitchen, one beside my dining room table, one beside the computer (and
primary LEGO sorting [and every once in a blue moon building] station),
one in the bathroom (you never know when the urge to build will
strike... actually, it's there because sometimes I process LEGO to be
cleaned in the bathroom), and one in the bedroom. I've got several more
that don't have a home yet...

No, don't say it: you are (searching for subtle euphemism) "passing" bricks?
Oooooo, and you have to use a brick separator?  Ouch.

You are taking this Lego stuff too far!  :-)

Well, I only have three, but I usually find that one of them is lost in the
pile of junk mail on the desk.  I try to keep them all together so I don't
have to build any contraptions to get the 1x2 plate stack apart.
