After you have shown your boxes for the first Time i bougth some of them and now my sorting works much better.

[BricksandFigsCollectibles]

Totally relatable with sorting by color 😅 Awesome tips thank you

[thelivingbrick]

I use these as well
Dreading the clean up is very relatable 😅 i do stop motion and ill have a bunch of random pieces surounding the set and just all over my table

Tackle box it’s good for on the go and has many sections it my main box that I use and it even has room for Mocs or moc sections depending on how big

[TheRugghead]

Perfect timing!😂 I'm using the nightmare method! Where it's perfectly organized until I need to find something

[TX_Blake]

Funny how this organization evolves. This is pretty much exactly how I have mine done.

Thats a great video with some ideas ive never thought of! Another thing I use are PAB cups. If I have a load of the same pieces I dump them all in a PAB cup.

This is such a good video! Also how good are flexi spot! So good to see you getting sponsored!! Keep killing it mate

Pro Tip! This is an Adam Savage tip that changed my life. When you have the garage workshop style drawers for small pieces, take one out and glue it to the front of the drawer as a sample piece. Then you know immediately at a glance what is in that drawer.

Some amazing tips and info from a fantastic builder!

Sorting and organization of my collection is one of my favorite things to do! Thanks for sharing a little of your process!

[BlueDragonBricks]

Sweet tips! On an unrelated note: when are you gonna do another lore video? Those are some of my favorites. :)

I already have my part organized, but this inspired me to organize them more


I am definitely taking the advice of making my most used bricks more accessible for myself

Its simple really. Most parts you first sort by color. Then you sort colors by plate or brick (parts mostly taller than 3 plates). Then you sort the bricks out between slopes and normal bricks, and the plates between tiles and normal plates. There are exceptions, like brackets you sort out from other types first, then you sort brackets by color and different bracket type. That's it mostly. I clip most of my parts together to keep the space they occupy very small, and its easy then to see how much you've got. Either that or i put each part in a small plastic bag, and the bag in the container/container section. If you buy on bricklink you should have thousands of tiny plastic bags by now.

I have a small plastic box with smaller compartments where I can put the pieces I've used if I don't feel like sorting them right after a completed building session, an intermediary station, sort of. I do the sorting later, while listening to a podcast or something, and I find that this helps my small space from feeling cluttered without the annoyance of having to clean up right away. And it also prevents pieces that I am procrastinating to sort from collecting dust, haha.

I use coffee cans for my earth colored 1x2 plates, and one for my 1x2 earth bricks, Rubbermaid for filler brick, and I got Tupperwares for water, and stone details, organizers for rockwork and grass slopes, and ziplock bags for bulk color, box for minifigures, furniture and accessories . I use cooking sheets and backing pans to spread the legos so I can easily dump it back in the bags

To easy gathering of bricks. Attach a plastic roof gutter to the edge of your working table.

It is easy to remove those parts you don't need by scooping bricks into the roof gutter, and then scooping bricks from the roof gutter into the designated tray.

Very fast clearing.

Edit: typos

Staying organized while building is such a challenge for me lol good tips thp

[BDD_Builds]

As someone who tends to build very large MOCs, I 100% agree that cleaning and sorting while building is definitely a good tip. Now if only I can get the message across to my 8-year old 😂 I also reuse plastic containers from various places to store parts!

[SergeantZaf]

Screw/nail organizers that you can find at home depot or lowes work great for minifigs.
