  1. In closely related hacking quality, I used screws from one Ikea shelf in another. You want pictures?

  2. This doesn't really seem to be a hack or IKEA related. This could be done with a piece of construction paper and some tape. I don't mean to be disrespectful but this kind of post makes this website horribly inconsistent with quality, creativity and originality.

  3. Wow, finally something besides a play kitchen! It looks more sturdy than something made out of construction paper. I imagine the kid can just slide it off and dump it with his/her toys, stand on it, jump on it, throw it across the room, talk into it and then use it as a tunnel again. Plus, I love the semi-transparent quality of it! Will dig around and see what I can find and make one for my son's IKEA wooden train set.

  4. I disagree Martina... It is a Hack and since the Hacker used Rationell, that would make it Ikea. Not all hacks are feats of engineering and design, And this is a great answer to making something besides a play kitchen. I agree with Anonymous 2-Wow, finally something besides a play kitchen!

  5. This project designed by LIKE Architects used the RATIONELL VARIERA in a very creative way: http://www10.aeccafe.com/blogs/arch-showcase/2012/02/08/frozen-trees-in-lisbon-portugal-by-like-architects-2/
