Ok, I have two sofas from IKEA, quite similar to this. The arm section comes off completely and is attatched with bolts.
What I want to do is take the arm off one, slide the other one next to it at 90 degrees, and bolt them together so they create a corner sofa. I have gotten as far as thinking I will use the bolts from the arm that has been removed to bolt the bottom side of one to the front side of the other. The wood panel at the bottom of the front (still with me?) is only about an inch thick so it would be easily enough done. All I would then need to do is use the upholstery from the spare removed arm to make another back cushion and technically its all good.
Now, am I overlooking something obvious as to why this wouldnt work? Anyone done anything like this?
