Does it have to be an item from the catalog, like a bed, table or kitchen unit, or can it be - just as an example, you understand - a trebuchet ? If so, [+]. |

I guess there are different versions of this but I think the rigor comes from making a perfectly finished catalogue product. |

/different versions/
I like very much the idea of Ikea parts as Legos: building blocks. I have not assembled Ikea stuff. Are the parts standardized one item to the next? |

Aren't you the lucky one. |

Seemingly, they aren't even standardized within the one item ... |

You'd end up with a rickety, unstable assembly that would maybe
work OK for a while, but then bits would start to drop off. Oh,

Perhaps David Attenborough could host a bio-version
of this. Contestants are given a pile of bones,
internal organs, muscles and skins, and have to
reassemble a real endangered species within the
timeframe. Or even within the time. |

We wonder if they do a version that's lethal to cats, too ? |
