Right now, I sort by color, but I also have several boxes of "new" LEGO.
The "new" LEGO is typically a box filled with about 3-4 new LEGO sets of
parts.  I have a pretty good idea of what parts are in those sets, so I can
go to the right box.

This is a really slack way to sort and I'm probably going to get a lot more
bins.

Hello, I hope this is the correct place to post this. I looked through the FAQs but didn't see anything that applied to what I’m going to ask about. I recently rediscovered LEGO and have been acquiring quite a lot of parts that I’m going to use for (...) (26 years ago, 12-Dec-00, to lugnet.build)
