    I'm about to build a flat pack cabin bed for my daughter's room. Just been delivered. Anyone within about 50 miles of me for the rest of the day is likely to experience a lot of very, very bad language.

    Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends.

        It can't be any worse than when I assembled my daughter's swing set. The set included 6,734 fasteners, all different, all of which could only be used in one place in one particular way. If you used the wrong fastener, the set would collapse and dismember your child. It would also place a phone call to Children's Services, naming you as a chronic pedophile.

              Had to put up 2 Ikea flat pack bunk bed last year. Let me say after a lot of swearing I had to saw of 4 of legs on each and use pythagoras theorem to adjust the ladder height accordingly, mind you I did surpise my wife when it was finally assembled. To add I got a PI T Shirt for christmas[^] :)

                I read the manual then sort all the parts before beginning. No problems. RTM rules! :laugh:

                    If they bother to put a manual that's understandable in the package. My brother and I took over an hour to assemble a play kitchen over the xmas break, all they gave us was a picture of how it should look when we had done.

                        If the instructions were meant to be used, they wouldn't put them at the bottom of the box.
