The BrikWars Forums

I am currently trying to sort my briks so I can have the pieces I need, when I need them. However organization is not exactly my forte so I want to know what you guys do to create an ideal workshop for brik based death machines.

Lots of containers and a flat surface within eyeshot of a TV playing your favorite sci-fi flicks.....

I have about 12 large bins for color and then about 90 smaller for unique or often used pieces

i have usefull bits on the floor, i mainly take parts from old MOCs that i don't like that much.

I'm in the process of organizing, too. I have a big seven-drawer tower with four small and three large drawers. One for technic pieces, one for plates and tiles, one for "specialty pieces", one for minifig-related pieces and transparent pieces, one for 1x(whatever) bricks and one for 2x(whatever) bricks. I haven't decided what to do with the last drawer...probably old creations to be cannibalized.

I stack all the bricks that are the same together, then I just need to find the right stack, and the stacks are in boxes of other stacks like them, I.E. bricks,plates,slants,technik,clips. things which I only have one of or are not stackable are organised in one of the slide-drawer things generally used to organise nails, nuts and bolts.

..I just have room for four buckets underneath my desk. I organized two buckets to solid standard pieces, one bucket to flat and sloped piece, and then one bucket to specialty/minifig/POOP/Studless pieces.

Plates, Bricks, Accessories, BURPs and Slopes in different buckets. And random bits all over the floor.

I have this little thing with drawers that about 80% of my pieces are in, the rest are rarly used ones and they're in a bin.

This is how I sort
