    Default Ikea

    Guess what I did over the weekend. Got it in one! Bloody IKEA and then the wife told me that it had to be assembled on Sunday. By Monday evening it was finished but why oh why are their instructions so vague? Quiet day today so took my frustrations out on a drawing and I know there is nothing new here but it made me feel better

    That's funny Albacore. You could maybe work for Ikea creating their assembly instructions.

    Nice drawing. I'm not sure which way that nut is facing, though.

    It's facing the same way as the frame.

    Oh GREAT! That clears it up. Yep, those instructions are sure helpful.

    The manufacturer of this stuff is really the 'Escher Engineering Company' or 'Möbius Nuts'?
