Does anyone know how much bricks are?

I'm doing a construction display for the Knaresborough Playmobil Exibition

I pity the poor sod who's got to count them out!

One easy way is to count out, say, five and weigh them.  If five come to 20g, then just weigh up 780g of bricks, put them with the other 5 and you've got your 200.  (It's also an easy way of counting out sheets of paper.)

It's also what they do in the bank when you take in loose change.  They know the weight of say £1 in 2pence then just weigh your little bag rather than count it all out. 

Looking forward to seeing pics of your finished building Damo.

Well, it's never going to be 'finished' as it were

You know what I meant!  . 'Display'/'part-built building' then.

I don't mind what method they use, as long as they get it right

Because if there's one brick missing...

I'll lend you one.

But still no price for it?

Well I'll only know once I get the order sheet through with the delivery

I don't know how much they are as the bill included delivery and about 14 various other parts

200 Bricks arrived (yes I counted them to make sure!) today, plus a load of other spares

Very impressed with Playmobil. I paid at 4:30 Friday afternoon, and by Monday Germany had shipped the parcel, and it arrived here on the Wednesday

Here is what 200 bricks looks like (plus ten pallets I ordered as well)




Here are some on the pallets:




Being Playmobil, they fit EXACTLY onto the pallets. Here I have done two high (24 bricks)
