(...) Odd. I never did the sort-by-color thing, but I wouldn't've guessed this would be a problem-- I don't tend to build models that are all one piece... :) On the other hand, maybe I do. I use 1x4s a lot more often now that they're easier to find, (...) (24 years ago, 4-Apr-01, to lugnet.storage)
