He's got it anchored by the looks of the picture so he'll be okay short term, but that shit has gotta get flipped 90 degrees or... see above pic.

Crisis averted I’m in the horizontal place. This means I am fluent in IKEA.

@wenis hasn't been on since posting to see these warnings.

Kallax crashes, a new collector cries
His needle falls to the floor
The forum opens their eyes
The confusion sets in
Before wenis can even pickup the floor

Kallax crashes, an old pressing dies
His intentions fall to the floor
The forum closes their eyes
The confusion that was his
Belongs now, to the Jon Tabakin first pressing on the floor

Ooh now wenis come on back again
Like a rollin' thunder chasing the wind
Forces pullin' from the center of the platter again
I can feel it

Lol I just saw this. Welp. Time to do it all over again. We’ve had this setup in the apartment for the last six years the wrong way 🤷🏽‍♂️

Were the cubes completely full or about half way? It’s a risk but that doesn’t mean it’s a certainty to fail. I’d just flip it and tighten the screws a bit and no harm done

Oh I was “done” in all senses of the word. I’ve alreAdy pulled 14 cubes worth of records so I might as well pull the rest and flip at this point. Hell of a workout.

Welp it was built completely wrong. I think I need to remove the top, bottom and left and right boards and rotate them once to the right so the bottom board is oriented to the bottom. Flipping it just won’t do.

Sounds like you've got your weekend planned

I blame my old roommates for not knowing how to build ikea furniture evidentially.

this is an Expedit shelf which would explain why the bottom is completely unpainted. At least that makes the orientation clear.

@wenis did you manage to actually get it apart and back together again? I find that Ikea is not too bad to put together but it's nigh on impossible to take apart in order to fix an issue.

Yea @Mather it was just the outside boards that needed rearranging so I just needed to remove the big bolts from the top and bottom and move the true bottom board to the proper placement. Tighten back the bolts and as good as new.

This has inspired me to anchor mine, which is going on 3 years of unanchored glory. No kiddos to pull it down...yet
