Einleitung
A LEGO can last between 100 and 1,300 years and many end up in landfills. This guide is helpful in learning how to repair warped LEGO baseplates instead of replacing them. Over time and through heavy use and/or incorrect storage, LEGO baseplates will often warp, preventing bricks from fitting correctly. Through this guide, LEGO owners will learn the process of restoring their LEGO baseplate pieces to full-functionality.
