		Re: Lego storage with good availability in the UK
I recently found some nice flat stackable boxes in Robert Dyas. The Organiser-160 has 14 compartments of various sizes (not adjustable), and I've successfully put all of my Technic/Mindstorms stuff into a bunch of them - all except for the big (...)
