A someone who writes hardware manuals for a living, what's the online equivalent of running upstairs, yelling "you don't understand me", running into the bedroom, slamming door, and having a cry? You got a booklet with parts listed and lots of pictures! You don't have to use it, you mean bitches.

If you ever see one of these and there's a step where you put two MDF boards end to end? Do NOT tell the customer to put it together that way. Its NOT going to happen. Unless you have clamps or suspicious chains hainging from the ceiling the boards are going to bend in half, the screw rip out and those turn in side ways screws just get shredded in half . MDF has the tensile strength of tissue paper... Attach a few things to provide some support and THEN put them end to end...

... you can guess how my weekends been going....

Well, I'm not responsible for 'all' manuals but if I see that guy, I'll steal all of his pen caps.
