This just about takes the cake, er, um, Legos.
Now, we’re a huge fan of Lego’s. Sitting on our bedroom floor in 1976 listening to Top-10 WABC Radio in New York City, this Jersey boy managed to keep his pre-teen sanity by building large-scale Lego projects galore. Such fun. Our collection resembled the box above. Except back then, we didn’t have all the high-tech small pieces.
Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories has a post today on How to organize your Lego bricks for efficient building. What has this world come to? If you’re into Legos, you’ve got to check this out. If you’re not, you’ve got to check out the passion this writer has for "efficient building." They’ve analyzed:
- Why storage drawers won’t work;
- Which Legos stack better than others;
- Why stacking bricks of like kind together make it easy to pick them out of a large bin;
- How alternating stacked bricks will save you time when pulling bricks apart.
Our most favorite comment is from Tim T. who says:
"It is always such a relief to find other people as enthralled with organization as I am. When we bought our house, which for all intents and purposes has infinite space (at least compared to our previous apartment), I spent about 2 weeks sorting all of my Lego’s for easier access. Previous storage consisted of a gigantic purple plastic bin, plus a few smaller additional bins."
2 weeks separating his Legos? Now, that’s dedication!
