Y No Ikea Hacking?

Is it just me or is there not enough love for ikea hacking, aluminum extrusions builds, opendesk, and case modding.

Let’s change that; who wants to join a few classes or even a SIG?

Opendesk DIY went TU some number of years ago, I do believe.

:frowning:

I’d wager there’s enough downloaded Opendesk furniture in the DMS community to put together a complete-ish library. I have several I’d be willing to furnish. For people’s personal use only of course.

I would’ve loved a class on “how to take an Opendesk download and actually make it on the Multicam” a couple of years ago.

We needed an uncarpeted workspace in our apartment, so I separated off part of our living room into a beautiful naturally-lit workshop. I installed decking tiles on the front of Kallax shelves with custom 3D printed brackets, so the reverse is all storage. I left the top row open as display space, and the eye level row is split so there’s a narrow shelf to display all sorts of little tchotchkes.

I did this a year ago, and thank GOD because Ed has to work from home now.

Ikea hacking? As long as it’s the Kullen. That one is a nice improvement over the Hurdal. But then, I’d have taken a Hemnes or Trysil over the Hurdal.

I’m partial to the Struva, Besta, and Glassvik combo:

but the Ribba is great too:

Found this via google: https://github.com/abetusk/dev/tree/release/projects/maslowcnc/opendesk

Looks like a different group already compiled everything.

I had to ask, who’s that bobblehead character in front of your pillow?

It’s Garnet, from the Steven Universe tv show.

Ikea hacks are great! The mods for the Lack table are legendary, including an enclosure for a 3D printer running ABS.

Semi off topic: where can I get a Garnet FuncoPop like this?

This is too funny… :smiley:

Hey @apparently_weird - JJ, it was a bit from Deadpool.

I know… recognized it but that’s the closest DP emoji.
