Ikea kitchen cabinets: Tinkertoys for big people

I love Ikea.

I love Ikea kitchens most of all. What is brilliant about Ikea kitchen Cabinets (other than the unpronounceable names) is the completely interchangeable nature of the Ikea widgets (aka cabinet bits). All the sides match all the bottoms, shelves, doors drawers as long as you stay in the dimensions of the Ikeaverse.

What do I mean?

Ikea makes 15″, 30″ & 24″ tall cabinets. But I need an 18″ tall cabinet to fill the space between the ‘new’ bathroom and the side gaucho of my Airstream trailer. Voila! Take a 15″ tall and an 18″ base cabinet and I have an 18″ tall cabinet. Tinker Toys, Legos, Lincoln Logs, but for people with a cordless drill and a good imagination.
