We are looking to bring all of our LEGO pieces (many thousands of US
dollars worth) together into one building space.

Currently we have ZAG storage units in two sizes (yellow and green) from
the Home Depot.

see photo at http://www.tufts.edu/~berwin/storage.jpg

We will probably go with something more industrial such as the Akro-Mils
bins since it will be easier to order them with a purchase order.

But the table in the above photo is 10 feet by 4 feet - much too deep to
keep a row of bins at the back end of the table or against the wall out
of reach.

I had thought of maybe having a turntable/lazy susan with bins stacked
around its diameter - sort of like a family table at a taiwanese
restaurant, but I wanted to know if anyone had other ideas...

You need a table that is not as deep. Maybe more than on table. 30" should be about as deep as you need. John Matthews Ben Erwin <berwin@tufts.edu> wrote in message news:384EC116.C02310...fts.edu... (...) (25 years ago, 9-Dec-99, to lugnet.storage)
