I'm about here. I've got 128-gals. worth of Rubbermaid tubs, 4 tubs filled to
the brim with pieces sorted by type into Ziploc freezer bags, the other two
tubs unsorted pieces. I used to sort baseplates, but that seemed to be a waste
of baggies. Never sorted by color, except when I was building a Klingon
Battlecruiser; grabbed all the grey plates I could find a threw 'em in a
baggie.
I've got MOCs and other models at my apartment, my office, parents' house, and
my new townhouse (slowly moving). I've got unopened sets in my car and the
aforementioned places. Probably enough to fill another 48 gals. worth of
Rubbermaid (it's been a while since my last sort...)
The scariest thing for me is I label the bags.
So now that I've admitted I have a problem, who do I sit in a chruch basement a
drink coffee with?
