'Möbius Nuts' - Great description - Love it.

Fred I had to Google "Möbius Nuts" never heard of that expression. Thanks for the great comments on a bit of nothing. Mind you I am going to send a complaint into IKEA as the wardrobe that I was building suddenly reflected its sketch 4 times in 6 steps with no info from the instructions and I am going to include this sketch.

It sums instructions up in one picture. Love it. I have only ever seen one portion of the drawing.
Brilliant.
I remember reading this is one lot of instructions, be 'extremely nervous.'
I wasn't assembly a bomb!!!

Fun twist on that old illusion Peter.

Reminds me of when my wife and I assembled her drafting stool for her studio. We accomplished the job in just under three hours ($#^%*&!@#@!!!!). We have a neighbor who assembles barbecues and other difficult jobs at the local Home Depot. He got quite a chuckle.

Hi Albacore,

great drawing!

I just stumbled on a video in which your drawing is used:

or page 75 at his slides.

He probably didn't think that anyone would ever notice.

Did he have permission to "borrow" that Peter.

Yes I saw it in the video about last February I think. I did not capture it from a video or go to the slide site and copy it from there. I did say in the start of the thread that there was nothing new here. When struggling with the wardrobes instructions made me remember the drawing and the next day I drew it from memory there was no plagiarism intended bar the use of IKEA's logo.
