>>8700900Sort by color first ALWAYS
Then sort categorically into bricks, plates, tiles; etc. As much as you have room for.
Sorting by part is a sign that you've run out of ideas and are killing time desperately hoping to think of something. Do not spend 3000$ on 86,437 drawers to seperate your pieces by part.
You will build MUCH faster pulling the color(s) related to your build than finding and getting out the 829 different drawers and boxes each seperate part is erroneously sorted into.
