(...) I posted late last week with my method of packing 137 2x4s with breathing room for lots of small parts.

(URL) This results in 136-2x4, 1-2x2, 21-1x4, 18-1x2 plus room for a few other little items like tiles. This (...) (22 years ago, 12-Nov-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping)

Hello! (...) No, they are not. Anything that's not coming under the licence of TLC - not produced by TLC, not packed by TLC (if made anywhere else like motors) and not "monogrammed" with the LEGO logo - is not LEGO. Why should it be considered a (...) (22 years ago, 11-Nov-03, to lugnet.general)

I know a lot of folks print directly to these labels and then just cut-and-peel them off and stick them on. You can even get the labels in (...)
