Construction of my new IKEA "Expedit" bookshelf is not going as planned. Wendy and I were doing just fine until step 11, not far from the end: attaching the right side. Getting the pegs to line up is a chore, and I suspect a third set of hands might come in handy. I've assembled IKEA furniture since getting my first set in 1980, and this is the only one to ever confound me (not counting those which had missing pieces).
I'm not alone: the number one Google result for the words "IKEA" and "Expedit" is this open letter from an Expedit purchaser.

And yes that letter to Ikea almost made me pee in my pants!!!

And our shelf looks fantastic (laminate veneer aside, but you get what you pay for; at least the veneer is dark enough in the black-brown version to hide the fake wood grain).
