(...) Thanks. :) (...) The format is: description,top margin,side margin,label height,label width,vpitch,hpitch,# columns,# rows "description" must be surrounded by double-quotes if it contains spaces.

  Re: Lego Part Label Printer
 
(...) That's really good, Gary! Especially so quick! Would you be able to document the format of the LabelTemplates.txt file? I use avery 7160 (3 across 7 down) and it doesn't seem to be there 8?( Also, it seems to print the lines between the part (...) (23 years ago, 19-Aug-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.storage)
 
  Re: Lego Part Label Printer
 
Doh. Already a bug sneaked through. Filenames were getting truncated on the generated labels. I've fixed the problem and uploaded a patched version. -Gary (23 years ago, 19-Aug-01, to lugnet.storage)
 
  Lego Part Label Printer
 
I've created a simple Windows application for printing labels for identifying Lego part storage drawers. This program was written in under 24 hours, so the user interface isn't very polished. If you enter bad data, the program may crash with a (...) (23 years ago, 19-Aug-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.storage)

  Re: Minifigs and their accessories?
 
My minifig stuff is sorted in roughly the following ways: Much is sorted into Plano type boxes. Legs are stored in one of the 9 compartment suitcase LEGO boxes (the ones which use 3 16x32 baseplates as covers - I also have one 6 compartment one of (...) (23 years ago, 7-Aug-01, to lugnet.storage)
 
  Re: Minifigs and their accessories?
 
(...) I dont own very many figs and accessories, I keep them in a "ficher plastic products" 18 compartment storage box (which is a little bit smaller than A4 in terms of width and length).

  Re: Minifigs and their accessories?
 
I've been using plastic re-sealable tubs about the size of a shoe box (stackable) that I get from Target for the figs - usually seperated by theme. For the accessories I use the mini-tubs from Ziploc that you can find at the supermarket. They come (...) (23 years ago, 6-Aug-01, to lugnet.storage)
 
  Re: Minifigs and their accessories?
 
(...) Yeah, that's why i was leaning towards putting the townie figs in a separate bin with townie type accessories - hair, police helmets, fire helmets, etc.. but not like.. ufo helmets and figs, etc. things i look for most: hair, townie figs, (...) (23 years ago, 6-Aug-01, to lugnet.storage)
 
  Re: Minifigs and their accessories?
 
Jennfier & All, (...) It really depends on how you use it effectively. I am getting so bad now it is pitiful. I use the plano storage tackle boxes, various sizes and demensions. My minifigs are sorted by various things, the first sort is complete / (...) (23 years ago, 6-Aug-01, to lugnet.storage)

  Re: Minifigs and their accessories?
 
I too have the same storage, including 5 Plano boxes. I also have plastic test tubes for things as small as swords, epaulets, feathers and hat accesories, loose hands, monkey arms, but nothing as big as a head or a helmet. Bodies go in snack bags. A (...) (23 years ago, 6-Aug-01, to lugnet.storage)
 
  Re: Minifigs and their accessories?
 
(...) One of the reasons I can't figure out how to seperate them is because I use torsos and heads from different themes all at one time.

  Re: Minifigs and their accessories?
 
(...) actually, I store my figs in a slightly different way than you, but in almost the exact same categories or sorting methods. The only way we differ is that I use a 40 bin parts case from target instead of baggies for all the accessories. Each (...) (23 years ago, 6-Aug-01, to lugnet.storage)

Thanks for all the help... I was also wondering how you store your LEGO catalogs... they are about 1/2 the size of a big instruction booklet. Thanks, -- Zlatko Unger fusion@refraxion.com or ungerz@bellsouth.net AIM: ErrorY3K or MojoJojo535 ~ eBay: (...) (23 years ago, 2-Aug-01, to lugnet.storage)

  Re: Storing Instruction booklets...
 
(...) US Paper can also be cut in half to form the next paper size, however the aspect ratio changes every other paper size. 8.5"x11" = A 11"x17" = B 17"x22" = C 22"x34" = D 34"x44" = E E is the largest size I've heard of in relation to plotters. (23 years ago, 2-Aug-01, to lugnet.storage)
