tractorboy Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 A full bar in his Lego basement. I like his style. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Migration Posted May 1, 2015 Author Share Posted May 1, 2015 And a giant screen in the ceiling. That library he built was awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mauro23 Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Only 250K??? I have around 550 LEGO sets, this means around 300K bricks... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brickson Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Only 250K??? I have around 550 LEGO sets, this means around 300K bricks...I don't even think it's the amount that's impressive. It's the setup. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregpj Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Only 250K??? I have around 550 LEGO sets, this means around 300K bricks...I doubt chest thumping 300k bricks around these parts will stand up... But if it makes you feel good, by all means. Besides, considering the number of bins and parts I'll bet the guy has no idea what he really has and it's closer to 500k. Those little pieces add up quick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Migration Posted May 1, 2015 Author Share Posted May 1, 2015 I don't even think it's the amount that's impressive. It's the setup.Agreed. He has it set up in a way that is perfect for him to build the way he wants to. And, judging by his MOCs, it works well for him. That library is stunning.

@rtisan Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Impressive! Only 250K??? I have around 550 LEGO sets, this means around 300K bricks...I don't even think it's the amount that's impressive. It's the setup.Yeah no kidding. The setup is one of the best I`ve seen. He is an architect after well, so there you go. He`s even not plenty of expansion room for piece count with the larger draws. Truly a great setup, and the lighting inside the room is also great for building. No annoying lamps for this guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diablo2112 Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 (edited) Absolutely gorgeous. Fantastic sense of design in the storage shelves and bins. Really, really well done. Did you see the video for the rest of the house? He built custom shelves for the modulars in the living room.

Sprocket77 Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Only 250K??? I have around 550 LEGO sets, this means around 300K bricks... It's not the size of your collection, but what you do with it that counts 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenchu2000 Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 I love the model that he created based on his own house. The only thing I don't like are some of the bins aren't transparent (or at least some see-through). I guess it's okay if someone can memorize the location, but for sure I can't.

brickpicks123 Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Id rather have 250k peices and taht setup than 300k bricks in their boxes lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest brickcrazyhouse Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 (edited) I know this set up has been showcased here before, (don't think it had its own thread) and no one claimed it as their own. pretty sweet though Edited May 19, 2015 by stephen_rockefeller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redcell Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 This guy's sorting system makes my head hurt. I don't have nearly that many parts sorted and I would go crazy if I didn't have parts separated by shape, size and color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grolim Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Very nice setup. I'd need to label stuff though or I'd forget my system for which tray goes where Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
citymorgue Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Definitely impressive what they did with that room. It would be hard for me to separate my sets and bundle them all together like that. I would rather take the set apart and put it back in it's box and then store it. Then again, I don't MOC anything, so that's a moot point.If I had a system like that, I think I would definitely work more towards MOCing things.
