How do you sort your LEGO? Let me know in the blog or email podcast@laml.org
Sorting – I know I’m a sick man but I do enjoy sorting and I think I have a good system. I do all the common parts by color and the unusual parts – chains, odd brackets, grills, minifig utensils, etc not by color. I like clear Planar boxes that have adjustable section dividers. So I can keep the 1×1 blacks from the 1×2’s, etc. The best box is about 12 x 16 x 1″deep. I think the Planar model # is 3770. By sorting this way, I more easily know what part of my collection I want to expand via B-link. Dark Green for example. It makes for more effecient shopping. So when I’m buying some particular pieces for MOC’s I browse the odd colors and pieces to stock up on them and save on shipping. Sorry for the long comment.
