(...) Whoops. I did a little digging on these sets. If 545 has one major divider, I assume 575 has 2 major dividers. That's what Conan has bunches of. the Pause DB does NOT have 575... or any other set that would be it, at least not under BASIC 5+, (...)

Ed, your system sounds like Conan's (the GMLTC host/chief lunatic) in a lot of ways. (...) He has about 100 or so of these. 40 of them are for basic bricks and plates, and 30 or so for slopes and windows. A final 30 or so have train parts, hinges (...) (25 years ago, 23-May-99, to lugnet.storage)

(...) I think this is a very good idea. If one sorts all the parts in various bins, one quickly ends up with lots of boxes which are needed to make anything at all. And it is quite counter-productive to need to bring out five large 8880 boxes (hi, (...) (25 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.storage)

I combine building with sorting. Most of my pieces are sorted following the colour and type rule, each separate. But with bricks and plates, I "build" them, and then store them. By building, I stack the pieces together, and they fit quite well into (...) (25 years ago, 12-May-99, to lugnet.storage)
