How do I sort the Legos?
I started Sorting The Legos a couple years ago and I am still not done. It will never be done! But it has come along way.
Storage Solutions
See my blog post for some advice on how to choose your storage solution.
Seville Classics Commercial 7-Tier
In the picture, you're looking at two Seville 7-Tiers side-by-side. These things are great for your largest piecetype segments.
Sandusky Lee Mobile Wire Shelving with 15 Plastic Bins
This is a great small-to-medium container. I have two.
15 Bin Tabletop Parts Rack - Storehouse
This was the first storage element that I bought, when I first began to Sort The Legos! I use it for the smaller piecetype groups now.
