IKEA Fabrikor Glass-door Cabinet reinforcement code (002.422.78) https://youtu.be/D7EuUlLbIjo After assembling the showcase, its weight becomes substantial, approximately 35 kilograms of glass and steel. When attempting to move it without assistance, it's challenging to lift it off the ground due to its volume, and there are no easy points to grasp it. Consequently, you have no other option but to support it on the legs, which aren't designed to bear 35 kilograms per leg, and the plate that supports the leg becomes deformed. To avoid this problem, I've designed a simple reinforcement to install on each of the four legs. The reinforcement is inserted into the concave part of each leg, between the base of the leg (which has the leveling adjustment screw) and the crossbar reinforcement. It's necessary to drill two 5mm holes in the metal leg to be able to secure the reinforcement with two M5 screws/nuts. To make these drills, we'll use the same leg reinforcement that we've printed as a template, previously fixed with a provisional flange. I've printed the piece with 100% infill, but I believe it also works well with 20% infill, which reinforces the thickness of the walls to 2mm.
