It's become a classic! More than 20 years old but still true.

Here's to another 20 years of futile sorting!

Hi Jeff, that are in fact two simple shelf boards connected by two hinges similar to this:

http://www.franz-holz.de/images/holz/flightcase-scharnier.jpg

So that gives a hinge connection which permits to fold the front part of the table down. (There are angle-brackets below, that keep the table in straight position normally, but the brackets can be swung out of position themselves).

Thanks Ben, That makes Since, At first I thought it was an Ikea Product that was not sold in Canada...

Cool! I always love to see how other fans organize their collection. And this looks VERY organized. You could be a German. :-))

Well, he’s dutch so close enuf ;) (oooooh, I’m gonna hear it from the wooden shoe contingent! Oh wait, that’s me as well!!)

Jeff has one of the most thorough and sorted collections I’ve ever seen. It’s a joy to visit and see.
It is also a Joy when other AFOLS come and visit me, Especially by ‘older brother’ Dave :)
  
  
Leg Godt!

Hi Ben, Thanks for posting your Lego Room pics here, I saw the images of your under table storage carts, and i love the idea of them.

I am also using Ikea’s Ivar Shelving for my Lego room, but I saw this image, and I have never seen a Double wide shelf that looks like your building surface.. is it a custome built shelf? http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=4796384

My bess guestimate, Jeff vW has at least twice the collection I have. That’s my best guess just by looking at the pics.

Unfortunatly, most of my basic brick bins are empty (at least the 2 x 4 bins as the bricks are all being used as filler under our many displays..
