Inventory Day

I did not want to count my Legos so instead my wife and I sorted them by size and weighted each. We then weighed a sample of each kind, counted the sample, and used that to estimate how many we have.

2875 1x1
4596 1x2
788 1x3
2409 1x4
512 1x6
224 1x8
4 1x10
2 1x16
2809 2x2
839 2x3
2017 2x4
197 2x6

17272 Total (not counting strange pieces)

The basis of the counts are weighing a sample with a known
count and extrapolating based on weight.

100 1x1 weigh 1.6 oz - 47.6 oz total
100 1x2 weigh 2.9 oz - 133.3 oz total
100 1x3 weigh 4.3 oz - 33.9 oz total
100 1x4 weigh 5.7 oz - 137.3 oz total
50 1x6 weigh 4.1 oz - 42.0 oz total
30 1x8 weigh 3.3 oz - 24.7 oz total
100 2x2 weigh 4.2 oz - 118.0 oz total
50 2x3 weigh 3.1 oz - 51.4 oz total
100 2x4 weigh 7.9 oz - 159.4 oz total

48 lb of legos

Most of these have been Christmas/Hannukah presents to the kids and me from my generous wife.
