I would say get a base for it with wheels on it so it can roll relatively easily, but then again having the instructions in the shed isn’t the end of the world.

Ultimately I decided that the cabinet with the instructions is better off in the garage because it allows us to put a shelf in the furnace room that can be used to store stuff we actually need such as backlog, part bins, etc. If I ever need to reference instructions after a set is built I usually download them - so having the instructions close by is unnecessary. So the negative turned into a positive!

Using a filing cabinet for lego instructions is absolutely brilliant. Definitely going to steal that idea when I get my own place one day lol.

Hey, do you know that there are wheel base to put on filing cabinet so you can easily move them.

Wow managing space in the Lego room is almost a fulltime job! Great idea to get a filing cabinet for the instructions! For the link between the city and the residential area, you could build a small bridge to link the two tables cluster, I think it would look great!!

Must have been satisfying having all those changes made. A place for everything and everything in its place

Glad 'project filing cabinet' was a success in the end, you're right about not needing the instructions close to hand because it's so easy to download them when needed for a quick reference. Looking forward to your AC being done so you can connect up the two MILS road systems, really enjoying building MILS myself and find it very therapeutic, still delaying my Assembly Square transfer though...! 🤪

Put the cabinet on casters. Roll it out of the way to change air filters

awesome video jordan i love the filing cabinet ideo for all the manuals it clears up alot of space the changes to the lego room look great

I would say periodically check your instructions for moisture or “warping” I guess with them in the garage. Seeing as our temps fluctuate like a yo-yo. Lol. I don’t know how bad the humidity gets for you out west, but here in Ontario it’s all over the map in the summer. Plus on a side note, you should do a video of your cleaning/dusting routine for the city and shelf sets as I’m very curious as are many others I bet. :)

I'm also very curious about dusting. I have a tiny fraction of the sets he does and can't keep them clean. I ended up only putting sets inside cabinets with glass doors to manage it. His room, sets, and shelves don't look dirty at all!

I’m so glad you moved the city my ocd was hoping you would arrive at this solution!!!

Not sure if anybody mentioned already but could always make a quick plywood box/platform on locking casters to set that file cabinet on so all your need to do is roll it forward when you need to clean filter. Lots of casters hold 100’s of pounds and if concerned with cabinet sliding on plywood, could always fire a couple metal to wood screws thru bottom of file cabinet into plywood. Just a thought for this or if you run into another situation down the road. Looks great as always, keep it up!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Love the live notifications at 2 AM dutch time!

coming along looking amazing. also whats in the banker boxes on the shelves behind the back of the city? Keep up the great work Bricksie Team

Totally agree with the city manuals, it more the fact that they can be different sizes in the same set. I’m amazed on one hand that you managed to nearly fill that filing cabinet, but not on the other given how many sets you have.

Sooo good with that solid cabinet to your manuals💪😃❤🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤🤍

Sounds like an old man comment, but It’s always good to keep good clearance in the utility room. Good call on the garage placement

If you out the filing-cabinet on top of a flat flower-stand with wheels, the you could simply pull it out of the way to change the filters and put it back in place once you're done.

Make sure you put some traps or ultrasonics in your garage. Rodents love paper bundles. And make sure it is off the floor just in case.

Why not take a big board with wheels (a dolly) on them and place cabinet on that? That way you can roll the cabinat out of the way when you have to change the filter.

Suggestion!!!!!! Just a suggestion. But for the downtown city area I would move the corner garage to where you have assembly square, at the end of the table where you connecting the tables. Then you could take out that random road plate and have more room for more buildings or a park. Just a suggestion.

Super good decision on how store away the instruction manuals! And can't wait to see those changes for the shelves.

Like everyone else said … put it on a moving low profile dolly with locking wheels… done!

Could you install some heavy duty castors to it? Could be moved then every 3 months or whenever needed

With the park/ninjago/zoo/residential area against that back wall, how would get to the art sets (especially if you are going add the Batman to the wall)?

a cool idea for the road connecting the city to residential area would be a mock of Lombard Street from San Francisco

I like the idea of putting the Lego instructions in a file cabinet. May use your idea. Great Vlog.

That's so neat with the instructions! Maybe we can fit a filing cabinet in our basement room 🤔

Two more big shelf. Yer. Will you add. Them where your building tabel is pull out draw s are. And put them salf there and put the draw s in another spot.

What a beast of a filing cabinet. Can't believe you nearly maxed it out. It would be impossible to move... unless maybe you got two bath mats.

What brand I can’t find file cabinet so smooth edges and no folder hangers

"nice, that worked out really well" 🤣 Great system!

Bricksie i wouldve suggested to get or build something with wheels that would support the filing cabinet so you can move it when needed and still have easy access to it in the lego room.

you could always get a strong wooden board and put wheels on it and then place the cabinet on top of that .Being on wheels would make it easy then to just move it around if you need to move it

Bath rug, nice!

All my booklet I put into the. Box flatened and even keep the number bags 👍 and put all the flatened boxe into one big box and you can fit lot in to a big Lego box set put in bed room closed.

Brilliant plan especially for how many instruction books you have...it sucks you can't fit it into the furnace though. Question is, what will be your system for filing all of the instruction books?

Watching this as AC guys are currently working on my place! Funny coincidence lol. What Seer outdoor unit Mr. Bricksie? Lol

I recycle most of my instruction books. I only keep the large sets. They were just taking up way to much room.

i read the video name and was like what happened omg, then you just solved the problem in minutes i am sure the filing cabinet was hard to transport

Love the channel bricksie

You could have left it on something that slides easy so when you needed to change the filters you could just slide it out ;) or on a small platform with casters! That said, I think its better off in the garage anyways since it doesn't really fit in with the room.

Put the cabinet on a furniture dolly...that way you can move it easily anywhere you needed or wanted to in your lego room

Take the flipdown cover for your unit off, and you can cover it up with something that rolls up. I'd be more concerned about putting all that paper so close to a metal filing cabinet.

I'd advise against storing paper in a garage in both harsh Canadian winters and humid summers as things like excessive moisture, pests and insects will destroy those items quicker than you think in a filing cabinet. Air tight plastic sealed containers are your best bet and even then there are risks. I'd find a corner of an office or spare bedroom to keep the cabinet in or like someone said, get a caster base for it so you can move it when needed. Just my toonie cents. 😉

I was wondering if you might move the city to align the road to residential. Be interested If you are gonna close off the T to nowhere on pop culture Street for an extra base plate and another modular. Lots of hard work going on in the lego room 👍🏻

Place your filing cabinet on a rolling stand

you could have moved the light switch up above the filing cabinet and gained that extra space .

Put wheels under it, then you can rol it away. No unloading needed.

Wait, Canada uses imperial measuring system? i thought they use metrics

put the unit on a 4 wheel trolley. Cheap, sturdy, efficient
