The prospect is daunting.
It is, but also immensely satisfying. We have a vague system of Ikea boxes for our Lego:
- Small interesting bits (anything less than 4 studs long or 2x2 like
lights, antenna, hinges, small Technic bits, etc) - This box is excellent for building micro-scale spaceships :) - Medium interesting bits (windows, turntables, wheel arches, etc)
- Large interesting bits (canopies, chassis, etc)
- Wheels (and axles)
- Round things
- Angled things
- Blocks
- Flat plates
- Minifigs + accessories
It sort of works.

All this brick chat is reminding me of an annoyance.
Our next door neighbours offered us a load of free Lego as their grown up / teenage kids had left it behind. A bin bag full! Of course we readily agreed.
But, the vast bulk of it is star wars kit stuff that is just all weird shaped bricks and surfaces and antennae and whatnot.
Now that this lot is mixed in with our original, more basic, blocks it is really hard to find bits to just build castles and towers with.
I think I am going to have to have a massive sort out. The prospect is daunting.
