    Re: A new P.A.B. 2X4 Record -- 152 2x4s! —Chris Phillips
   (...) Under the modified rules, I was easily able to get 152 2x4s into a cup by adding one more layer to my stacked disc technique. The lid doesn't snap shut, but it overlaps with very slight downward pressure. It is also not necessary to force the (...) (21 years ago, 1-Dec-03, to lugnet.general, FTX)

        Re: A new P.A.B. 2X4 Record -- 163 2x4s! —Chris Phillips
   (...) I knew I missed something, because I added more bricks to the top level than my previous personal best had increased by.

         Yet another PAB 2X4 Record: 169 2x4s! —Tony Hafner
     (...) I know this thread died months ago, but we got a store in the Seattle area a few weeks ago and I finally got to try it out. And, of course, this subject is always of interest. I got 169 2x4 bricks into a cup today, using a slightly modified (...) (20 years ago, 6-Aug-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

   (...) I tried this method and it takes a little time, but it works very well. As a control I packed 2x4s into a cup without any assemble and I could only fit 103 bricks, so assembling makes a significant difference. (21 years ago, 25-Apr-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.org.us.wamalug, FTX)
