Hi there I was wondering if anyone could offer some advice on how to safely remove masking tape and packing tape from old lego boxes? I seem able to remove the tape without tearing but am left with a layer of extreamly sticky stuff - anyone got any (...) (18 years ago, 26-Jul-06, to lugnet.storage)

Greetings, Earth Mortals! Have you seen these: (URL) ? Sorry that's the only picture I can find right away; I'd have posted my own pics, but our home computer system is not operating within normal parameters. For you new Parent-FOLs, Gerber has a (...) (18 years ago, 20-Jul-06, to lugnet.storage)

So this weekend I went through a flurry of cleaning in my Lego domain, the result of which is that it's finally clean enough to show. I've been meaning for a while to document the extent of my sorting system, so people can see how a collection of (...) (19 years ago, 1-May-06, to lugnet.storage, FTX)

Doh! I wish you would have told me then! Odds are they just pitched the tubs, and I could have packed at least some of them in my car. The new tubs suck, as the lids don't clip on very securely, and the studs sticking up take up a bit too much space (...) (19 years ago, 20-Apr-06, to lugnet.general, lugnet.people, lugnet.storage)

(...) <sigh> I remember when the GMLTC displayed at the Kidvention in LLC way back in '99. I bought 40 tubs from the BIG store. Gave the tubs to some MCs [1] and packed the rest into a rather large box-- thanks to the light-traveling Abner Finley (...)

I usually have to sort Lego that I've bought while in Orlando just so I can fit it in the car ;-) Though since Bley, the amount of Lego compared to other things bought on vacation pales to the past. Gone are the days of heading home with 50 tubs (...) (19 years ago, 18-Apr-06, to lugnet.general, lugnet.people, lugnet.storage)

(...) We flew Northwest; the baggage weight limit is 50 pounds each. (...) Well, in my home, having 10,000s of UNSORTED LEGO in the basement is grounds as well.... :-) JOHN (19 years ago, 17-Apr-06, to lugnet.general, lugnet.people, lugnet.storage, FTX)

(...) 50 pounds? The airlines didn't charge you extra to ship? Or did you drive? I think in some states, sorting Lego on vacation is grounds for divorce... :) --Mike. (19 years ago, 17-Apr-06, to lugnet.general, lugnet.people, lugnet.storage, FTX)

(...) No, I would have the trays they are to be sorted into with me. Gahd but I'm so sick of sorting. I've devoted scores of hours just trying to sort out about 27 gallons. Partly because I have to juggle stack on trays and such when one category or (...) (19 years ago, 15-Apr-06, to lugnet.general, lugnet.people, lugnet.storage, FTX)

I'm often forced to sort just to compact the Lego even further than just pulling bags out of tubs/boxes, but that's Lego bought on the vacations. Though since the Bley change, I don't buy anywhere near as much. Now I usually have to compact it to (...) (19 years ago, 14-Apr-06, to lugnet.general, lugnet.people, lugnet.storage)
