This is an “IKEA Hack” or mod that I put together to solve a problem while making use of something that I already had on-hand.This model allows you to repurpose a spare shelf for an IKEA BILLY Bookcase, in order to create a lap desk, or miniature raised table/platform. If you want to just buy the shelf (not really recommended though), you can find it here. While I have not yet done so myself, I have designed the legs to be installed more permanently using 6 screws for each (12 total). I would use something like these #8 x ¾" modified truss head wood screws. You just have to drill through a couple layers of filament to fully open up the holes (and make pilot holes in the board). The “rear cover” parts are intended to be glued into place. The “side cover” parts likely don't need any glue, but you may opt for it there too.Optional:If you don't want the legs fully spaced out, you can resize the “rear cover” model to suit your needs. I've also included an optional middle leg
