| (...) I've found that an excellent cleaning method is to soak them in Bizz detergent (by far the best detergent...it can get things out that better-known brands can't touch) for a couple of hours, then scrub them with a toothbrush, and rinse in a (...)

| | | | A great cleaning method for lego
|
| Do you have a big lego model, that´s covered with dust between the studs? then, you need a toothbrush! A toothbrush is great! Remember, angle the brush, use soft, gentle brushes. It´s like brushing your own teeth. It´s a pretty slow method, but it (...) (25 years ago, 21-Dec-99, to lugnet.storage, lugnet.build, lugnet.general)
| | | | Lego Box
|
| I search a good storage system for my technic lego. My problem is that I don't want to use such small compartments because the many pieces. At this moment I use my largest boxes (8880 twice, 8485, 8448, 8460, 8462, 8479, 8480, 8482, 9719, 8094 and (...) (25 years ago, 21-Dec-99, to lugnet.storage)

| The slowest thread ever! I know this is a month (and then a year more) old, but I am catching up, too, and there's a lot to catch up on! Archival quality sheet protectors are very useful and almost a necessity for photographs, but I think (the ones (...) (25 years ago, 21-Dec-99, to lugnet.storage)
| | | | Re: Acromills bins...
|
| Do you have any pictures of these? They sound affordable and good size-wise. Might be just the right thing for getting organizized. I cross posted this to B-S-T for you... -- Have fun! John The Legos you've been dreaming of... (URL) weird Lego site: (...) (25 years ago, 21-Dec-99, to lugnet.storage, lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

|
| I've completed my experiments with Goop. It's an adhesive that comes in many different iterations (I've used the "shoe" and "automotive" varieties and they both seemed like the same... er... goop) and claims itself to be "stronger than glue!" if you (...)

| | | | Acromills bins...
|
| Does anyone use the Acromills type storage bins for their LEGO colletcion? I have aquired many of these (over 100) bins size is 12inches long by 4inches wide and 4 inches deep, color blue. I have quite a few of the dividers for this size bin also. (...) (25 years ago, 16-Dec-99, to lugnet.storage)

| (...) I find that I really like the self closing style of tweezers. You press on them to open them, and when you let go they clamp onto the part. My fingers are way too big to pick parts out of the small storage sections, and with Technic parts, you (...) (25 years ago, 14-Dec-99, to lugnet.storage)

|
| Hot glue is brill... NICE idea Ralph! It would be more of a mechanical connection, though,as the glue does not bond to plastic (unless you get a special kind, I don't think). My suggestion, along the same "mechanical" lines, would be Elmers(tm) (...) (25 years ago, 14-Dec-99, to lugnet.storage)
| | | | Re: "Fixing" movable dividers in Plano boxes
|
| For now, I'm using a pair of tweezers to lift smaller bits out of smaller bins. I haven't yet got around to doing an experiment using Shoe Goo as an adhesive. I intend to try it on the Plano plastic, and on a Lego brick, so I'll know whether or not (...) (25 years ago, 14-Dec-99, to lugnet.storage)
