Hello all,
I have always wondered the following regarding what other people do with their
sets:
If you have a set, do you keep all of it's pieces together and not use them for
other things, or do you just mix all the parts in with your other pieces and
know you have the set because you have the instructions?
Personally, I keep all my sets together(not built, but all the original parts
with each other) and build only with parts that are either from duplicate sets
or are pieces that I bought from Brickbay or something. Perhaps this is a
stupid thing to wonder, but I've always been curious what others do.
Jason

| I basically do the same as you, I'm glad to see I'm not the only one! Some tell me that all Lego should be played with, though if I've only got 1 of a set, I can't mix it with my collection... only duplicates of a set get assimilated into the (...) (23 years ago, 22-May-01, to lugnet.general)
