I've finally started to sort my LEGO.  I;ve been using a drawer system
suimilar to the Akro-Mils Storage Cabinets from a company called Stack-On.
I found the cabinets at Home Depot for $10-$15.  You can see a picture of
them here:

the picture with the tool boxes in it)

These have two drawer sizes, one about the same size as the small one and
one inbetween the two larger ones in the Akro-Mils system.

The problem I'm running into is that I have a number of blocks (1x2, 1x4,
2x4 blocks, 1x6, 1x8 plates, horses, castle walls, etc.) that I have so many
of they won't fit into one of the drawers.  I'd prefer to keep them all in
one drawer rather than seperating them into multiple drawers.  So I'm
looking for reccomendations for something with larger drawers.  What do
other people use for drawers larger than 4-7/16”W x 2-5/16”H x 5-1/2"D?  >Thanks!

I personally use the IRIS brand drawers for my larger/more abundant parts.

I read part of that thread, but stopped after people started asking how to subdivide drawers further. It's simple - DON'T. Buy more carts, or more Lego, so that 1x1 plates fill a drawer ;-) (...) -- Tom Stangl ***(URL) Visual FAQ home ***(URL) Bay (...) (22 years ago, 3-May-02, to lugnet.storage)
