    How much (%) of your collection do you use at one time? —Greg Kramer
   I've been feeling a little guilty... I have no idea how big my Lego collection is, a guess is maybe 20,000 pieces or so. I usually work on one project at a time; maybe a large spaceship, castle, or something. But my mode is usually one project at (...) (25 years ago, 23-Jul-99, to lugnet.general)

     (...) I do the same thing, but right now I am at my worst. I am only using about 2% of my collection because I am doing a large scale minifig custimization project right now. When I am being normal though, I only use about 10% at any given time, but (...) (25 years ago, 23-Jul-99, to lugnet.general)

     Greg, I have roughly over 100,000 pieces plus, Gary Istok has I think 500,000+ or so, and I know some other people have more. Don't worry about it. I use maybe 0.5% (roughly 500 bricks) if that many. I have all of my Lego's sitting around most of (...) (25 years ago, 23-Jul-99, to lugnet.general)

     Don't feel to bad, I've got quite a few things built and displayed right now, and I'm working a bunch of other things, unlike you I do 3 or 4 or even sometimes 5 projects at a time... I'd have to say that about 99% of my collection is unused.. that (...) (25 years ago, 23-Jul-99, to lugnet.general)

      Considering half of my sets aren't even opened, and I have a lot of them, I don't think you should feel guilty. I don't. As people are pointing out, its only possible to use so many pieces at one time due to space, project size, time permitted for (...) (25 years ago, 23-Jul-99, to lugnet.general)

     (...) I'm about 13,000 pieces, and I'm using about 30% right now. My town is very small: only 6 buildings, but I have my own train station, and I'm working on the train. But I try to have more than one project going because sometimes I think too (...) (25 years ago, 24-Jul-99, to lugnet.general)

     (...) My collection is more or less the same. Sorting is not a hell still ;-) but it starts to be close to this. Usually I build on my bed and need to do cleaning every time :-( . I have not so much space to display my MOC (usually I assemble (...) (25 years ago, 26-Jul-99, to lugnet.general)
