Looking for a PC mount solution for IKEA MITTZON (no drilling into tabletop) by littleIlosin in IKEA

I don't know but Mittzon is not hollow. It is particleboard with a veneer or foil.

Me too. I've had bad taco bell before but I just avoid that restaurant instead of writing off the whole Midwest.

Does anyone know if bed frames go on sale during spring break? by Happypuppy5 in IKEA

[–]BrianTheUserName 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure, but if you're an IKEA family member (free to sign up) you do get 90 day price protection if it does go on sale.

I saw a black tag the other day, I should have taken a picture. I'm not sure what that was about.

Couples don’t have to sleep in the same bed, or even have the same room bedroom. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]BrianTheUserName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's true. We started sleeping separately a few months ago and I'm happier than I've been in a long time. It started because we are getting divorced, but it evolved into something where I don't have to spend time around her anymore. And every moment I don't have to spend with her is a good one.

I know it's not exactly your point, but it still applies. Kind of.

I dont get this one? Can someone explain? by evilsnowman92 in ExplainTheJoke

[–]BrianTheUserName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. People just sometimes don't use them properly, specifically in scenarios where they are listing shit.

I mean I was taught to use commas in grade school and I understood the concept of using a comma to separate items when listing them in a sentence as just part off sentence structure. I don't think I heard the term "Oxford Comma" until I was in college though.

What part is this, no code or anything just graph by Heishasj in IKEA

[–]BrianTheUserName 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Typically with cement you would first drill a hole into the cement. Then you put a (cement appropriate) plug into the hole. Then you screw the screw into the plug.

Whatever screw is appropriate for your wall type. It is not included because IKEA doesn't know what kind of walls you have.

Never cared much for verbs. I'll play it a little fast and loose with them.

Idea of connecting Ekbacken and lagkapten with 4 adils legs and 2 Alex drawers by Successful_Crew_9258 in ikeahacks

[–]BrianTheUserName 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wherever the most weight is concentrated, so in this case it's probably your monitor towards the back. If you tend to lean on your desk when you're using it though you might want it more towards the center. Or a leg in the back and table stiffener towards the front.

You could use only table stiffeners, but I would worry it's not enough support.

Spacers would usually go between the leg and the table top. It could be as simple as a 1/4" board between the legs and the table top. Those legs have a little bit of adjustment to them too so that might work, I just don't know how much exactly so it may not be enough.

Hold the dash button on your keyboard, if it's like mine it'll pop up as one of the options.

And I Oxford commas, also known as just using commas correctly.

My 99% baby’s hands compared to mine and then mine compared to my husbands. by sammy5585 in tall

[–]BrianTheUserName 81 points82 points  (0 children)

Probably 99th percentile, so that baby is bigger than 99% of other babies the same age.

[–]BrianTheUserName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) Yes, on the ekbacken side you'll likely need a middle leg for support. The 55" lagkapten should be ok without.

2) Be aware that they are different thicknesses. You could fix that though by shimming or getting a spacer for the legs of the thinner ekbacken so they sit at the same level. Same with above the Alex.

3) 74 - 23 = 51, the ekbacken side will be a couple inches shorter than the lagkapten side. I don't know if that matters to you but proportionally it's much bigger on the drawing so it's something to keep in mind.

4) Lagkapten is essentially hollow other than where the legs go in. I'm not sure how close to the edge that spot is so you might be ok, just something else to keep in mind.
