(...) Beer. (sorry couldn't pass it up! :) No, but seriously, I just use plain water for 80% of cleaning, water with mild dish soap for 19%. Any other solvents or solutions can be hard on the plastic. Some folks say rubbing alcohol, but don't let it (...) (26 years ago, 12-Oct-98, to lugnet.storage)

That makes draining them much easier. For drying, I air dry them. I have (...) (26 years ago, 12-Oct-98, to lugnet.storage)

(...) Ok, I'll come clean on this one. When I needed clean LEGOS to build a candy dispenser (from the Klutz crazy LEGO Contraption book) I could not see putting time into scubbing those little babies. I just bought new ones. Now you know the truely (...) (26 years ago, 17-Oct-98, to lugnet.storage)
