I bought something flat-pack, and assembled it.
It didn't break at all, and it works as intended.
Although I DID read the instructions, so I'm not sure it counts.

I'd agree if it weren't for that pink-black sweater!

Flatpack?
I built a goddamn cabinet from my MIND. Using nothing but a screwdriver, filler, a tenon saw and a ironing board as a cutting table. (And wood obviously)
And its ****ing SOLID as. Also, It has a door on it.

That pales in comparison to some of the stuff the A-Team made.

I once made fire using two branches and piece of bark. I was wearing nothing but a loincloth too.

Those are the status lights of the IKEAssemblatron 2000. Both glowing square pink means "assembly complete".
So this thread is actually about a cyborg gaining consciousness, and not, as we all suspected, a nerd treading into testosterone soaked grounds.

An obvious lack of tool belt would seem to confirm this.
Also, its fingers appear to be screwdrivers.

IKEA assembly is great, I always kick our stores boxes when i'm in a bad mood. I'm the best co-worker everz.
The customer whinage though when they can't find that last screw is gold. Solid, gold.

Lemme guess... you have this bowl at your desk, filled with all those missing screws, because... well... you took them.
And whenever a customer is calling about that missing screw, you reach deep into the bowl, feel the weight of the metal in your hand, and slowly let em trickle through your fingers with thorough satisfaction.

The Eyes - I'm looking to the completed product, I'm not an android!
Also, second one is gluing up! - Using the weight of the first one to pin the second one together tightly - Get in.

Sorry, you'll have to speak up - I can't hear you above this music.
Btw, in all seriousness, is the strange music from a film that has an android in it that I haven't seen before?

I built an Ikea bed that I sleep on when I was 12. It is a double and it's a highrise so the other bed I built that my brother sleeps on is underneath it.
However young TX, one is not truly a Man until he performs a crowning moment of awesome with appropriate original, awesome and manly dialogue.

Disagree
Nice tune and all that but not definitive.

So far this year I've done
My house: Replaced a light fixture Move a 8' tall cabinet into the washroom through a standard size door. Fixed 30' of the south side fence and rigged a 20' gate into the area where the posts aren't set yet. Reset my rollbar on my truck for a tighter fit which included grinding one bolt that had rusted shut.
The old folks home: Essentially set up my grandfathers apartment for his move up here from Cali. Included Queen size bed, end table, dinner table and 4 chairs, and tv stand.
Repo'd house: Replaced 2 sections of fence that had rotted including digging up a 60lb block of cement and resetting a new post. Removed a water softener that was no longer in use. Placed a banister on the stairs to bring it up to code. Landscaped the front yard. Repaired/replaced the walls of the walk in shed and connected open storage unit. Rewired the kitchen light and garbage disposal so both properly work now. (House starting bid was 123,000. My dad grabbed it for 123,001 as he was the only buyer there. he plans to sell for about 185,000)
Storage Unit: Made 4 10X4X4 tables so we can utilize the 'up' of the unit.

Doesn't count man. Proper men must a) use power tools (including a chain saw) b) an arc welder, c) have some screws leftover at the end yet still have the construction work as intended (with full structural integrity) and lastly d) have to improvise at least one part that was either damaged or missing using MDF and/or a part from a different piece of furniture or building.
Nice job man. What's going on it? -------------

I totally read that as use a chin saw, now that sounds manly. a chainsaw is quite manly as well.
