 Storage / *310 (-10)
  Wohoo!!! Sorted it all!
 
Well, kind of, only my black, grey, blue and yellow. Now, the white ones are elft, and they are *many*! I would like to know how you store your lego, I use some storage boxes that I think are intended to use with nails, they are called "raaco (...) (25 years ago, 12-Sep-99, to lugnet.storage)
 
  Re: Automatic sorting
 
I've purchased a system like this. It is four plastic boxes with square holes that decrease in size from the top tray to the bottom tray. It is not made by Lego. It wasn't cheap... maybe $20, possibly more. But it is handy, to some extent. When (...) (25 years ago, 7-Sep-99, to lugnet.storage)
 
  Automatic sorting
 
I've just patched together a "system" for automatic sorting of Lego, and I wonder whether anyone has tried to do the same - maybe with better results. The idea is to have a series of boxes, one on top of the other. Each box has a net as its bottom. (...) (25 years ago, 6-Sep-99, to lugnet.storage)
 
  Re: Loose or Clumps?
 
(...) Loose. I like stacked, but because of cracking I'm convinced loose is the proper way to store them. Mark (25 years ago, 4-Sep-99, to lugnet.storage)
 
  Re: tuff 'tainer storage (was Re: help me spend some money!)
 
I guess both storage boxes have their place. The WorkForce box is embossed for non-slip stacking, and its largest compartment holds an RCX. One box holds an entire 8480 Space Shuttle kit with some care in packing. Al Thiele (...) (25 years ago, 29-Aug-99, to lugnet.storage, lugnet.robotics)

  Re: Loose or Clumps?
 
(...) I keep all my pieces in tubs according to size and color (1x1 gray/white/black/green , 1x1 red/yellow/blue, and so on) and all loose. Dunno if either way is better, but I like shoving my hand into a huge pile of loose bricks - slowly of (...) (25 years ago, 20-Aug-99, to lugnet.storage)
 
  Re: Loose or Clumps?
 
I hate to be completely A.R., but what does everyone think is the better storage method: attached or loose? Do attached bricks get used to being attached and loose their "snap"? Do loose bricks get scratched faster than attached bricks? KL (...) (25 years ago, 20-Aug-99, to lugnet.storage)

  tuff 'tainer storage (was Re: help me spend some money!)
 
(...) In my opinion, the Flambeau Tuff 'Tainer is a much better deal, at $2.90 each (at my Home Depot). They have four very long, thin bins, which you subdivide yourself into whatever sizes you need (up to 48 max, 12 per row). Each box comes with 20 (...)
