Sterilite must absolutely love the lego company.
You're quickly becoming my favorite youtuber! I like the mix of short vids and really love seeing some longer ones! Thanks so much!
Thanks so much, I'm slowly learning how to do different video styles. Short videos seem to play best. But sometimes you just need a long video as well :)
Your OCD alone earned a sub! It is a beautiful set up!
I can’t wait for an updated parts collection tour!! :)
Very interesting and enjoyable Darrell. I go by colour myself, mainly as I like to take a large draw or two out and pull the parts I need from them... But also, sorting them out into individual bricks fills me with terror.
Great video. It's great to see what different AFOL's do when it comes to organization.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent video, four stars!
That was a great video. I just became a collector, enthusiast, or hobbyist & have maybe a 1/8 of what you have and I get overwhelmed at times while sorting and naming legos. I enjoyed it. I noticed that whatever works best for you is the best.
Thanks, my collection of parts has actually doubled scince this video was made. Which is why no matter how organized you get, its always changing.
@@BevinsBricksWorld can you make an updated collection video?
Yes and if you watch the video im about to post. You will see my new facility and my backlog of sets.
@@BevinsBricksWorld yay!! I can’t wait to see it!! Thanks for replying to me!! :)
This is the video I've definitely been waiting for. Very impressive! I'm always on the search for more used Legos so I can organize into narrower categories.
Although I don't have as much Lego parts as you have, but the parts I do have I'm storing almost the same way. I know some people also sort it by color, but if I do that I'm still searching every time to the correct part. So as I also sort it by part it is much easier to find the correct part in the correct bin. finding the correct color is then no problem anymore
@@BevinsBricksWorld so true
For fun drink every time he says “hodge podge.” Try not to get alcohol poisoning lol.
Wow ! Amazing ! I would like to see how you organize your instructions. Thanks :)
I used file cabinets and can make a video on that at some point
Very nice! Ours is so hodge podge. This makes me want to start from scratch with all new bins. Lol
Ours is organized... but we have about 40 different types of containers. Yers is purdy! Ha ha
You organize similar to what I do with a few exceptions. thank you for sharing.
Yes! I was anticipating this video! Looks great. Keep up the good work.
You did a good job !! the organization of your parts collection is very well-arranged and well-sorted !! :-)
I would like to give a suggestion/idea, if you are interested. I saw that you have a lot of Knights and Pirates stuff (Lego) such as minifigures, weapons, guns, canons, etc. So I thought it would be a nice idea, if you could build a lovely History Museum where you can display your weapons and figures. You could build different sections or split the museum in the 4 history eras (Antquity, Middle Age,...)... [> these are only suggestions :-)] You can decide how do you form it ;-)
In any case, it would be a nice way to use some weapons and Knights minifig. in your awesome Lego City. Maybe a project for the future ;-)
Kind regards from Belgium ! :-)
This is a really great idea - a museum would be a wonderful addition to your city I think :-)
Nice Video Daryl,. Interesting and informative.
OK, this is the first video of yours I've ever watched, and our sorting systems are uncannily similar. And it's funny because you call the parts the same things I do (aka toilet seats lol) - maybe that's what everyone calls them! I've recently gone less granular because the sorting was a nightmare. And you have WAY more pieces than I do. Don't get me wrong, I have a lot of parts, but you've got me beat by a long shot. Thanks for sharing your system.
Great Video Buddy And I Love Your Legos And I Love Legos Too And I Started Sorting My Legos By Color And I Keep My Sorted Legos In ZipLook Bags
@@BevinsBricksWorld Your Welcome And Marry Early Christmas
@@BevinsBricksWorld Thanks So Much
a beautiful collection, today I share colors but I also have to think about the division into types
Great video. My Lego organization is very similar and you even gave me ideas on where to group "stragglers" that don't look like they belong in any other group. Thank you.
Nice video, I wish I had money to sort my LEGO
I enjoyed every minute of it so not sure why you kept apologising :). I also learned a thing. For some reason I never actually realised the difference between the black and grey tech pins before. So thanks for that! :D
Is a good help for get ideas for stock the bricks, now I have better ideas with mines in the future, I still have over 30 pound in Ziploc bags because I don't have the space for my lots
@@BevinsBricksWorld and the time pass really fast, check lego shop if you like nexo knight they have in clearance the bad guy set for 3.24, and they add the sea xtra polybag
I just started organizing my bricks and I'm finding that I sort very similar to you. Lol my parts collection isn't nearly as large as yours but still in a smaller scale it's very similar! It must be because we're electricians and my cart always has to be perfect with my couplings, connectors, hardware 1/4", 3/8", then caddy clips and pins for my shooter etc.etc. lol. Love it! Thanks for sharing your organization skills! Definitely going to save this video to come back to time to time. A lot of awesome tips I'm taking from this video!
@@BevinsBricksWorld Nope, I think you made the video perfectly! You were very efficient with your time.
Very inspiring, thanks for sharing!
I’m just getting started on my storage system and would like to know how you decided on the type of drawers.
-Do you prefer deep over wide drawers?
-Any différence, other than size, between the 3 drawer units with no gap between drawers and those that have gaps (white support separating each drawers)? Strength? Stacking limitations? No gaps appear to offer denser storage space.
-Did you ever consider drawers with separators?
-Did you ever consider hardware storage type units with 20 to 60 drawers (often used for nuts and bolts)? I see some that use that and then have overflow storage.
-Would you keep your method if you had to start from scratch?
Thanks again!
I enjoy your videos and watch almost all of your new content. I also have a very large collection some from the 80's as well. I am going to do a similar sorting style to yours because I hope to start traveling to the conventions in the future and would like to be able to build mocs to display and find things easily. I don't really like the Technic parts very much but I have noticed that they seem to accumulate very fast. I am probably going to just sort them all together because I don't really use them in my style of building
So, they are not sorted by color, just by size? Very organized wall of joy, behind you. 😃👍🏻
I do by shape and then color :)
Impressive collection sir
@@BevinsBricksWorld one day I might have 25% of what you got
@@BevinsBricksWorld that's true, just jump on those amazing deals
Hi .. nice tour
Even at 4 years ago still pretty nice. Anyways nice video
Sadler_Bricks
Thanks 😊
I don’t have alot of money to buy storage drawers and I need to save as much space as possible so I stack my bricks and store my made up rods of same size same color bricks on their sides with other made up rods:.. plus it’s easy to see how many I have and if I need 18 bricks of one kind, I just count 18 and snap off that amount from the main rod and put the rest of the rod back to n the tub with the other rods.
Edit: I just noticed you have some of your light blue 1x2 bricks stored in a stacked rod just laying in there. But that’s how all my bricks are stored.
Thats a great way to store your parts. I have so mich I just dont want to spend the time to do it that way.
I’ll Make this a quick video ,43 minutes later.
Great video keep up the good work
Elliotslegobricks
Ok I like the video , I’ve got a new MOC and thanks for already checking it out ,inspired by one of your MOCs ,although not as good .enjoyed the video,interesting to see what you have,and that 1x1 round draw . Thanks again for your amazing content,ELLIOTSLEGOBRICKS
Wow mate u have a lot of lego
Can I just say: THAT IS A LOT OF LEGO!
Really? Can you make that a video?
Haha
Great vid!
It’s very interesting to see how you sort your LEGO! In my experience you always end up with a large bin of ‘Misc’ :-D I really like how you’ve mixed sorting by colors, shapes and function - very cool! I never thought about storing all 1xsomething of the same color together! That’s a pretty good idea I think! Do you keep a ledger or something? Or do you just know where everything is? Thanks for sharing this and keep up the good work!
Bevins Bricks ahh, I like the use-them-in-a-build solution! Puts a challenge in new builds! Great! :-)
Bevins Bricks oh yeah! Maybe they would be good for something that’s supposed to look like a steel framework - a bridge or something?!?
You have so many LEGO all mine probably couldn’t fill 2 of those
Bevins Bricks I’ve been saving up to buy legos I going to save up to around 200$ and spend it on LEGO
Hey Bevins Bricks, I have about 55,000 parts, with half built into sets or Mocs. Would it be best to keep them sorted by color? Don't have huge collections of single pieces.
Do you plan on making an updated parts collection video soon?
At some point yes
Nice video
Thanks, You went way back to find this video lol
I wish mine was that organized but it’s not. Ha! so much LEGO so little organization!
31:20 there's a difference ?! I never knew!
In your video I'm not seeing a place for antennas - like the 1980's era TV antenna - nor for the diagonal windows from that same era?
Great video! How big is your Lego room? I have about half as many legos as you, but I get more all the time, so I'm gonna need to find a bigger room to sort them in.
Thats huge! Do you have a video on that?
Thanks!😁
I thought you were going to make this video as quick as possible.
When do you buy bricks? Do you see a cool piece and buy it or buy as you’re building something and order the right piece/pieces?
I’m mainly just curious 😂
Bevins Bricks ah ok thank you for the info
You have a lot of brick! I can’t find a lot of stuff. I’ll get organized eventually. Haha. I actually shot a similar video this morning. Yours is better!!
I think it’s scheduled for Thursday.
I need to do that with my mega Bloks
Afternoon Darryl is this how you have your parts organised still? Your build room looks a lot different to this in your recent videos
Happy days.. my setup is very similar to yours with how we separate most of it ive just not got the quantity you have yet! Appreciate the reply again too man!!
Have you done a full room tour recently too
Nice
The 1x1 round plates are called thuds
@@BevinsBricksWorld Neither do I
I wonder which is more expensive, the bricks or the storage drawers ?!
The bricks
@@BevinsBricksWorld
Man, those drawers cost a small fortune!
Unless prices have gone up I thought they were very reasonable.
How much would be the total cost of all of these pieces? Approximately? A million dollars?
Bevins Bricks would someone sponsor you to buy these worth 50k or all are your own out of pocket expenses?
4:57 is that the ice cream van?
Yes it is :)
I have barely any transparent thuds we take them as crystals
The worst thing about this video is that it reminds you that you have to sort your own collection again. I just wish that had the space and the same amount of drawers.
iv been sorting for over a month now and still cant find a good system
Nice! but it takes so much time to organize all lego 🤯
Bevins Bricks I actually enjoy sorting, perhaps I'm just weird! A similar video would take me about 5 minutes, as I have only a fraction of your quantities! 😉
I dont have enough space for my Lego collection... its rough
2:57 i call those the 1x3 turns
I just spent 50$ of my birthday money to buy 4 of these and orginazing takes forever all my lego was in a tub expect minifigures
I bet it's the first time at all I have organized my lego I'm just now getting really into lego and invested A little Money into it!
@@BevinsBricksWorld Yeah I just posted A video Of the Drawers and how I have been orginazing them! Way more fun then collecting coins LOL. But still Coins are fun here and there.
@@BevinsBricksWorld Yeah its fun when you have money to buy some coins but lego is just so much more fun to me. I recently just built A mini Moc and did not have to dig for 3 hours to get a the pieces! I made a video on my organization becuase I was so proud lol.
@@BevinsBricksWorld Yeah but lego you can use again and again so it gets less expensive as you go unless you want new parts
If people would just build and display the sets they buy, all of this organization is sort of a mute point them.
Bevins Bricks, totally understandable. So all of the sets you have the boxes displayed in the background for, are they still built?
That dislike is probably someone thinking that they are cool
Maybe that person was temporarily insane.
Vous avez combien de tiroirs ???
Ok @@BevinsBricksWorld
Ok merci, car moi aussi j'essaie de rangé mes pièces par tiroirs. J'ai 12 ans et j'ai une petite collection.
Merci 😁
Est ce que si je vous envoie une vidéo sur Instagram de mon début de ma ville. Vous la regarderez ???
La vidéo viendras du compte ( david_ch17 ) sur Instagram.
Agh all the mixing of colors is killing me
Nice
Thanks
