I really love sorting lego, its kinda relaxing and looking very cool

[@CubeBrick]

Yeah there is something soothing about that. But I prefer building 😅

[@SW_Bricks]

People who sort by colour then piece type where you at?

[@CubeBrick]

Probably still sorting 😅

The irregular slopes you showed. They come in an olive green color too. I found them in pick a brick once and they make great roofs.

[@CubeBrick]

Yes, I've seen them. Good idea for a roof 😉

[@naklockowani]

To jest najlepszy film o sortowaniu, jaki oglądaliśmy. Mega kolekcja!!! No i dałeś nam do myślenia z wieloma tipami 😉

[@CubeBrick]

Bardzo się cieszę, że moje wypociny się przydadzą 😅

[@BenTheBrickBuilder]

your set up is gorgeous

[@CubeBrick]

Thanks mate. It took few years to get to this point, but I'm glad how it turned out.

[@benlebeh]

I'm also a packaging designer and big Lego fan. Greetings from Germany

[@CubeBrick]

Nice to see someone like me then 😁 glad to have you on the channel. Enjoy 😉

[@benlebeh]

I really like your videos and I will definitely buy that polish storage

[@CubeBrick]

They are awesome. But make sure you write to the store if they will ship to Germany. I know that someone already wanted to ship abroad and they didn't want to send because they were afraid it could be damaged.

[@ABrickDreamer]

Great workstation 👍

[@CubeBrick]

Thanks ☺️

[@jakotako6673]

This is so great!

[@CubeBrick]

Thank you 😊

[@EdgeofBricks]

Właśnie rozebrałem do końca Siege i sortuje 😁 Niestety nie mam tyle miejsca na szufladki, więc sporo części trafia do woreczków strunowych. Piękna kolekcja, nic tylko budować na pełny etat 😅

[@CubeBrick]

Może kiedyś 😅 Jak zacznę budować to i tak pewnie trzeba będzie domawiać...

[@brickreel]

It looks great! I hope I can get mine organised as well as yours!

[@CubeBrick]

Takes a lot of time, but you can later save it while building, so it's worth it. Good luck 😉

[@bricksfordom]

Very awesome video, all of these tips will be super useful, good job👌

[@CubeBrick]

Thanks mate. Glad you like it and find it useful 😁

[@Brick-together]

Hi Cube Brick, verry nice roomtour. I also sort my bricks by parts. Now i‘m looking for a good system, so that i can build quick. The system from chowaj looks verry nice and i like to by it. But one email later, they told me that they only ship in Poland. It's a pity for everyone who doesn't live in Poland, because it's a really good system. Now i wait for your next videos about your new moc. Keep on brickin‘ and greetings from Germany.

[@CubeBrick]

Thank you. Were you not able to convince him to ship to Germany? That's not that far. But good luck in searching for a good system. And as for the next episode, I'm still making the rockwork, but the vid should be out next week. Just need to push it more 😅

[@amyk9813]

Such a shame I can't buy the drawers in the UK 😭 they look great

[@CubeBrick]

Probably you have something similar, but yeah it's a shame because they are great in quality

[@simplyyourbuddy]

i wish i lived in poland 😞 i have the blurry white plastic drawers and i dont like them at all do they ship to spain?

[@CubeBrick]

Unfortunately not. The seller told me he used to ship abroad but they were damaged so not it's only in Poland.

[@arioctober]

I think when it comes to Lego I'm more like a 6-year-old and I probably should start sorting by color... I'm not going to be building complicated MOCs anytime soon and I don't have the space for that complicated giant storage system. I have been sorting by type but it's been a huge pain in the butt because I have so many containers! I think if I were to sort by color and then just break it down into very simple categories (small/medium/large?) from there it would probably be the best solution...

[@CubeBrick]

Yeah space is a crucial part here. But you can sort by type families and color. For example brown plates x1 separated from x2 x4 etc. As long as it fits your building style. 😉

[@madmrmax]

Anyone seen some storage containers like what chowaj provides in the western countries? I'd love to find something like that for north america.

[@CubeBrick]

I've seen some guys using similar solutions in the US, so I guess u have to look around 😉

[@cgflightmech01]

Ever find anything? I want these bins! This is PERFECT for lego

[@madmrmax]

@@cgflightmech01 Nope, and I'm still quite jealous at these! I've not found anyone in US selling the clear containers (and sizes) like chowaj has.

[@CraftDAnimation]

Are there any alternatives to Chowaj for us in the UK?

[@CubeBrick]

I saw similar solutions on temu, but other than that i can't help 😉

[@MisterBrickalew]

Color and size works pretty well actually. Get your daughter a size sorter and you'll see how much more she makes with the pieces.

[@CubeBrick]

I couldnt manage with only color when I had way less bricks, so cannot imagine how I'd be able to do it now 🫣

[@MisterBrickalew]

@@CubeBrick It helps to know what pieces I can use when I build using a specific color. You kind of already do somewhat when you look at your collection. Just arrange the drawers by color. Put the pieces in the same place/order for each color to help know where they are.

[@uniformitydubliner9691]

Hello! 🙂 Around how many kilos of sorted LEGO do you have? Thabks! 🙂

[@CubeBrick]

Hehe I have no clue. Probably too much at this point 🤣

[@EllisLoves]

Do they ship the drawers to the uk

[@CubeBrick]

I doubt it. The owner said that they tried abroad but they came in damaged, so he'd rather not do that. But you can always ask 😉

[@EllisLoves]

@@CubeBrick thanks bro your videos are awesome

[@CubeBrick]

Thanks. Glad you like them ☺️

is there a coupon for the drawers?

[@CubeBrick]

Unfortunately not 😔

[@dommanolo3644]

This is incrible

[@CubeBrick]

Thanks. I've been building it for years now, but totally worth it 😉

[@RobertSmith-tu7rl]

do the containers ship to the united states??

[@CubeBrick]

I doubt that. The price for shipping would be too high, besides they could get damaged during the trip. But I'm sure that there are similar containers in the US

[@RobertSmith-tu7rl]

@@CubeBrick nope none 😭😭😭

[@CubeBrick]

Really? Nothing? That's a shame. But I've seen a lot of US guys have some similar ones. Have you tried Amazon?

[@oxygen454]

There is many different kinds you can buy in North America. I was able to buy some sorting drawer bins from my local automotive parts store (Canadian Tire) They are normally listed under nuts and bolts sorting bins.

[@RobertSmith-tu7rl]

@@oxygen454 these are perfect for that I need I did find something similar . Your not talking about Storage drawers right ?

Chciałbym ale czasu starcza ledwo na jeden 😅 może kiedyś

[@michalserafin6972]

Ma Pan jakieś kody rabatowe na produkty chowajto? Albo czy Pan sam ma jakieś zniżki u nich. Mam Ok 120 000 klocków, ile takich kontenerów by wystarczyło so pomieszczenia tego. Nie mam całkowicie rozeznania, wiec jakiekolwiek szacunki mi pomogą. Pozdrawiała

[@michalserafin6972]

Pozdrawiam*

[@CubeBrick]

Kodu niestety nie mam żadnego (a sam bym takowym nie pogardził). Ile kontenerów potrzeba to kwestia indywidualna. Każdy sortuje swoją kolekcję wg swojego sposobu sortowania, zależnego od tego jakie elementy się posiada. Polecam zacząć od kilku w różnych wariantach rozmiarowych i z czasem rozbudowywać jak znajdzie się swój system 😉

[@michalserafin6972]

Hej, dzieki za odpowiedz:) Sporo myslalem przez te kilka godzin i sadze ze podstawowym czynnikiem jest wyznaczenia ilosci miejsca jakie mozna przeznaczyc na zabudowanie:) kolejny krok to wiedza ile procentowo roznych partow zawiera kolekcja. no nic, czasem zadanie pytania na głos juz prowadzi do pewnych rozwiazań. Pozdrawiam serdeczenie

[@CubeBrick]

@@michalserafin6972 u mnie budowanie szło stopniowo, ale prędzej czy później i tak skończy się miejsce. A co do kodów promocyjnych to możesz zajrzeć do Zapalskiego. Wiem że niedawno też nawiązał z nimi współpracę i jakieś kody posiadał. Nie wiem czy dalej obowiązują, ale spróbować nie zaszkodzi

[@aprilpitts6179]

I sorted my Legos, but then I just destroyed it

[@Deus69xxx1]

"Don't sort by color!" Is significantly sorted by color

[@CubeBrick]

First by type. And if I have a lot of the same type, than by color, within that type 😉

[@chrisken8902]

Nah! Need sort by coloring!

[@CubeBrick]

Good luck searching for that one small piece then 😉

[@ólöfhalldórsdóttir]

what should I use if I can't get the black sorting system shipped to my country in Iceland.

[@CubeBrick]

You should try some local hardware stores (they usually have some similar solutions), or maybe Lidl, on Temu (I saw some similar in an add recently). Hope that helps 😉

[@danielrhodes7594]

I like your drawers, but wish they were in the U.S. I went to the website and they do not ship to New York.

[@CubeBrick]

Yeah, unfortunately they sell only localy. Good luck in searching for similar ones in the US. 😉

[@SneckoGames]

Why don't people use labels?

[@CubeBrick]

I was thinking about making some, but the layout changes from time to time, so I rather memorise when each piece is 😉

[@ChAnimations]

I sort by part category for important pieces (brackets, clips, hinges, modified bricks, etc.). the rest is sorted by color. that is a lazy system that works and does not require hours of sorting. This allows me to easily build MOCs in a predefined color scheme

[@CubeBrick]

I tried that in the begining but doesn't work for me at all. Too much time spent looking for one piece. I rather sort it once after disassembling then do do it each time I sit to build. 😉 But whatever works for you mate.

[@Soveey]

I have mixed color/type system too. For example I have 1x1 and 1x2 plates of one color in one drawer, or even I combine 1x1 1x2 1x3 1x4 depending how many parts of the exact color I have. When I build landscape in green color I just take 1 drawer with 1xY green plates and another drawer wirh 2x2 2x3 2x4 green plates. Much easier and faster than combining all random colors of 1x1 plates in 1 drawer.

[@TheEmilia1]

bardzo przydatne, dzięki! Sama cały czas pracuję nad swoim idealnym posortowaniem, więc inspiracja idealna.

[@CubeBrick]

Cieszę się że mogłem pomóc 😁 trochę to trwało ale w końcu jest zoptymalizowany system. Teraz tylko budować 😅

[@legoloo_]

Uuuu nazbierało się trochę tego 😮 Muszę się zaopatrzyć więcej szufladek od chowaja. Od kogo zamawiasz elementy? 🎉 Super lego room!

[@CubeBrick]

No troszkę już tego plastiku mam 😅 A przeważnie zamawiam na BL od tego kto akurat ma to, czego potrzebuję, więc raczej nie mam jakiegoś konkretnego sklepu w którym zawsze kupuję 😉

[@legohivemind]

I’m a young adult and I already sorted my collection by color half in bags and half unsorted. Should I start over and sort by part or stay with what I know?

[@CubeBrick]

Whatever works for you. If you have sorted by color, you can now easly separate different types within that color (for example plates, bricks etc serepately). That way, you will have not only seperated by color but roughly by type. 😉

[@kristofnijs2460]

Too bad Chowaj didn't react to my mail :/

[@CubeBrick]

Oh that's too bad 😔

[@bobvankasteren1233]
