(...) <snippage> (...) I use clumping as a sorting method, in combination with ziplocs & drawers. As an example, in my brick storage, I keep bricks in purple tubs and have found that I can find pretty much anything in there by having the 1x1's and (...) (25 years ago, 6-Jul-99, to lugnet.storage)

(...) Actually, I have a bunch of the storage cases from sets 545 (6 bin) and 565 (9 bin). They hold "slugs" of bricks perfectly - 2x4 stacked 8 high - they hold 21 "slugs" in each bin = 168 2x4 in one little bin. (25 years ago, 6-Jul-99, to lugnet.storage)

Hi, Has anyone had experience with this? How would one pack up a set for a really long time, for, say over 30 years? A bunch of questions come to mind, and I'm not sure what's important. Are there any special requirements for ABS plastic? Would it (...) (25 years ago, 5-Jul-99, to lugnet.storage)

I just had a friend in from out of town, and they had the coolest thing for Lego storage, unbeknownst to them. Apparently, you can buy these little disposable Tupperware containers in the same section of Target where you buy sandwich bags. They are (...) (25 years ago, 12-Jun-99, to lugnet.storage)
