Man you have used every inch of that closet! I appreciate you showing how you store your pieces. I find it supper fascinating!
Glad you liked it! Definitely tried to squeeze as much as possible in there, still planning to add a few more Akro drawer units on the upper right (above the trans/ technic area)
I think all AFOL share one thing in common, the love of organization
This storage room is insane! Love the way the colours alternate between some drawers, impressive stuff
That storage room is so nice!! I wish I had space to make something like that
@a little world of bricks Es wäre so cool, wenn wir es getan hätten
I like how everyone has the "I had no clue what to do with these so I just dumped them together" box.
hahahaha exactly 😂
Slick setup looks great. Kinda surprised you left the clothes bars in place.
It is an incredible collection! The sorting is extraordinary! Congrats!
The thing I don’t like about organising parts like this is the fact that you have to go through each draw to get the pieces you need. I prefer having them all in front of me
Ya but it saves alot of time.
If you have a massive lego bin your looking for 10 minutes for like 6 prices
put the drawers all in front of you
I absolutly adore how orginized you're collection is!
Personally speaking I recently came back into lego collecting and realised how lego makes so many deffirent parts which makes it difficult to find when sorted.
Thankfully a trick i know whould be helpful in the future is to use mini ziplock-bags in small droors (like most of us have).
Lego will always be a big passion of ours and i am glad we can expand our collection while also trying to not fill up the whole house😁.
Love seeing how everyone likes to organize their bricks. Similar to me. You mentioned the dividers you get are quality. Do you have a link to them anywhere? I didn't see them on your Lego Parts Room Items on your site. Thanks!
That is what I call alot bricks!!!💪😎
Fimally someone has shown me drawers and most importantly: DIVIDERS perfect for lego. Those drawer dividers are going to be really helpful to me because i have a lot of different random lego peices that need to be sorted. I must say, this is the best video i have watched this month. And THANK YOU for showing me this stuff. This will most likely be put to good use.
awesome setup! keep up the good work!
Thank you!
Truly excellent - thanks for sharing!
This is so awesome!!! I'm currently organising my bricks, but I haven't as much as you. This looks so great, thank you for the inspiration
Wow. Its like the real life minecraft creative world.
It’s awesome to see how someone else does it!
Lego storage owners’ worst nightmare - EARTHQUAKES!!!!
So excited for this
Such cool organisation! Once I have enough pieces, I'm going to try colour rows!
Hello. Where did you get the drawer dividers in the gray drawer? Thank you.
Looks nice
Thanks!
this helped me out a lot in sorting my lego. Nice video!
It's like heaven 😍
Thanks so much! This video was super helpful for my Lego collection.
Glad it helped!
Gave me some good ideas on sorting. Started the process of sorting mine in the past month.
You've got so many different bricks and other pieces! I really like the organization and your way of sorting by different colours in these small drawers. Inspiring video!
Thank you, glad you liked it!
This look good especially with including what look like reused small cardboard boxes as separators. With much much less pieces, our largest storage separator is as big as your smallest.
WOW!
This is how you can count your lego without counting it
Step 1: weight it
Step 2 multiply that by 900
(One kg of lego is around 900 pieces
I have 36 900 lego parts
Comment how many you have
I've recently gotten back into LEGO building and collecting, and as someone who's extremely organized to point of being obsessed, I've been watching many videos on LEGO organization. I've come to the conclusion that I'm sticking with your way of organizing. I've purchased the clear Akro-Mills dividers for my drawers and they seem to be working (yes, those black dividers that you have to clip off from the back of the units are worthless) but I was wondering what Amazon store you bought your, what seem to be, plexi dividers for your bins.
I have looked at about a thousand videos/articles/images etc of lego storage solutions over the years. None of what other people do ever works for me. Everyone needs their own strategy. Only way to find out what you like is to keep trying until the system works for you and your way of building.
That is my dream closet- I would kill for something like that. I can’t keep anything sorted at all. Maybe it’s because I don’t have enough drawers or space.
Very impressive. Lots of ideas for storage. Thanks for posting this video.
Thanks for watching!
Sheer insanity! But a well-organized one. 😄
Hahah thank you!
Great organization! We are reorganizing our parts for a new area we are renovating. Love watching these types of videos! :)
What a great organizing setup!
what are those gray storage drawers on the bottom? they are nice and clean and fit those plastic bins nicely.
Great system
Great video. A outstanding setup of your lego parts. 👏
The most interesting part of this video was the Dolly system for camera rigging. I don’t understand what is so engaging about storage. Take the pieces out and put them together
Very good storage system!
Thank you!
I need to do more sorting. I think I have way more than that. Mine wouldn't fit in those drawers.
that shocked me.The music was scary at the beginning :o lol
You can file the dividers so they won't get caugh
Hi I want to say... I enjoy this Episode and others, of course, too.
Appreciate it!
your parts storage is so so awesome great job keep up the good work
Glad you liked it!
I hate sorting. I usually pull all my common building pieces and sort by color and size. Everything else, odd shapes and odd pieces go into a couple large bins
What are those clear organizers that you use inside your drawers?
Great idea!
Thanks!
And all these bricks are from out-parted sets?
What do you do with the leftover boxes from these sets?
Great Video, I sort in the same way like you, but the drawers are smaller. 😅
The "overflow containers" with lids shown at 1:35 aren't on your Amazon list... did they not work out?
Well, soon you will have 1x5 plates in some colors, I think they are available in black and white and a few other colors
Very true
Do you have a link for containers you have up top? I didn’t see it on your Amazon list.
man how do you reach the top... i cant imagine me gettin the ladder each and everytime jus for a small 1x whatever piece
Luckily we're both pretty tall, but we have a small step stool that you can just slide over with your foot when you need to climb up... super fast and simple!
Awesome. What kind of dividers did you use for the Alex drawers?
I got 5 large totes full of Lego parts and started to sort them out, after watching this video….
What did I get myself into.
I bought bags and bags of Lego that came from ripped boxes from 3 sets on was hogwart school and a city set. I got 10 bags for a 1.00 from a liquidation store and Lego was nice to send me the other 3 bags for Hogwart for free. So I got a $170.00 for a $1.
My question is there is a Japanese block sets that I like but they are not Lego, do you have none Lego block with lego blocks.
the second you transition from drawers and open containers to large ransparent organizers in minimum 6 diferent sizes, some with some without compartments, and when you start sorting first by family, then by part, THEN by color (doesn;t look good for videos but amazingly practical). you know you have transitioned from hobbist to proffesional. Those smal drawrs are insanely unpractical for large scale every day builds, and storage must be one to few steps from building table, othervise 50% of buidling is walking there and back. One of the most important things to know during storage - find a place for certain type of bricks (family), and never change it, so you know without thinkign where is what. I have 5000 kg of bricks, from one part I have one color 1.000.000 parts, other color 1 part - same brick. Storage always evolves depending on what bricks you own. Also, removing sets from parts collection is a must, as they take so much space (I only have one unboxed set, and that is Exo-suit (ideas), and only reason it is unopened is because designer signed the box. Your storage shouldn;t be pretty, but maximaly usable (unless it is part of content creation, then it should be beautiful above all else). If I have a part, but I don;t know where it is, it is just like I don't have it. And my storage containers differ from 125 L (barrels, usually filled with 1x2 or 2x2, 2x4 bricks) to smallest micry plastic containers (for screws or fishing equipment). I tend to organize storage containers so I have least amount of different boxes possible, and literary depends of the amount of a single type of brick I have - if I have few, goes into Wobby House transparent containers, more, to LIDL transparent containers, after that, 4 types of square Metro containers. Following that I have Curver "unbreakable" boxes for larger quantities and barrels (125L) for largest amounts
Storrage cupboards are made from plywood, custom made so I can fit the boxes perfectly.
As I do events logistics is extremely important, as all I build must survive the transport - so I have cardboard boxes that open on side (custom made to the size of baseplate in base (two types, 48x48 and 32x32), and different heights (but standardized, 10, 20, 40 and 50 cm - 60 cm is max to be able to handle them without issue (or carry them without issue). 80% of my baseplates are 48x48, because bigger the base, sturdier the build, especially heigh buildings. Sooner or later you will desire to transport your city to event - plan for that while building.
I have custom made shelves from Plywood that can store 2 of those 48x48 boxes (or 3 32x32), and 60 cm in height (so I can combine my diferent heigh boxes). Dozens of those shelves, and they are cupbboards actually, without doors. And on wheels, so I can move them around in storage. Each cupboard is 40 kg heavy.
I have meny other typs regarding storage and transport of LEGO bricks and mocs, if people are interested. There is some amount of joy of sitting amongst bunch of sorted LEGO bricks inside your storage, isn;t it? :)
nice video
What methods do you guys use??? Let us know in the comments! 👇🏼

Wth,by the moment I thought about if u have made any new video I look my phone and what I see? Your video 😂
Haha try to get one out weekly!
The link seems to not work for me
Can you tell me which specific storage it is?
I guess 50 Grand worth of bricks deserves a grand worth of storage 👍
Lego hobby is a triad of Time, Storage, Money. Most of us have only 2 of the 3 at best.
Just subbed awesome channel
Thanks for the sub!
@@AFOLTV np great channel!
How I wish I could store my parts
Can you give a link for the drawers
how does one acumulate bricks in these quantities ?
Where do you by the thinks you have you bricks in?
What was the name of the company that made the clear dividers that work?
So what I do to cut down on cost is I cut up cardboard boxes to use for my akro mills dividers. It’s soooooo easy to do and it’s basically free. I just use the cardboard boxes that I get from lego orders etc. Now it’s clearly not going to look as clean as these clear ones in the video but like he said the clear ones are pricey and with all the other money you’ll need to spend on storage I think saving money whenever you can is important.
To the owners of this channel, thank you so much for finally finding a reasonably priced clear small part organizer. I’m about to order 10 of them as I have over 100k parts on my bricklink store!!
Brick on!!!
How much did you pay for all the sorting boxes and stuff?
You can find the prices on Amazon: www.amazon.com/shop/afol.tv
I’ve got 3, 40 gallon tubs of legos. Not even sure how to start sorting
How does one, collect so many bricks? Part out, Pick A Brick?
ua-cam.com/video/gbOiATZFaxM/v-deo.html 😄
Does anyone have a link to the drawers they use?
amzn.to/3vinkBx
@@AFOLTV Thanks, but I meant the rolling drawers you have at the bottom.
I still have problems with segregating legos
Heyy
No way, those boxes he uses to store the legoes are the ones I also have but not for lego placing.
Have you used some mathematic algorithm?
Hey, I subbed and now, can you do my favorite plane - Airbus a330
I see someone who needs a label maker…
Just memory for now 😄
You need more plastic in your life... buy more lego... insanity is real here... :)
Very nice indeed im sure you have more by now. We are getting close to 800k. But nice store here. And nice video.
