http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/40105340

if i could find out the width of the legs on that one i might be on to something ... supposed to be going to ikea tomorrow anyway ... so i can measure it ... but now i have spotted it on their site i am impatient to find out :)

Looking at it won;t it be the same as the outside? i.e:

Assembled size

Width: 100 cm
Depth: 55 cm
Height: 35 cm
Max. load: 65 kg
Max. screen size: 32

:scratch:

Eh, no I mean the width of the bottom shelf ...
Total width less width of legs ...

What's the width of it's legs Colin?

Well assuming that's it the inside dimensions are over 85cm. Just stick a tape measure to the screen & it will become self evident :eyebrows:

The legs are about 5cm wide.

Hamish, shall we make it even easier :lol: If it's 100cm wide & has 5cm wide legs & there are two legs, one either side (which adds up to 10cm), what do you end up with if you take 10cm from 100cm :scratch:

Like i say, there is more than 85cm to play with :ner:

I have that in the black-brown dark walnut colour, looks nice
The usable width on that one is 139 cm.

They can easily be double stacked so you have two shelves :)
this leaves a spare bit of wood for some other project.

Hannah gets her fireplace back

In return I get to build a loft system

... ... ...

Thanks to getting rid of some bits and bobs in the lounge and the rearrangement meaning there is nothing on the mains that isn't hifi or filtered through the pure av thingy it actually seems to sound a little better too ... Quieter ... Funnily enough ... Maybe it's in my head, who cares, Hannah is happier, I'm happy ... Happy days!

Actually, just had a thought, it might well be hard wiring the router to the computer that has made the sound better ... Either way ... :)

As Mark says, these Ikea racks are easy peasy to customise/stack whatever..
Made myself a custom TV bench /Storage Unit for the bedroom with one and one of the wee side tables.

Stacking two shouldn't be a problem.
You COULD just sit on on top of the other if you don't fit the legs?
Only problem is it might move slide about so sandwich some rubber sheet or whatever between them...sorted.
