Summary: Jack should have listened to Ianto’s advice.

“Damnit!” Jack cursed, trying again.
Ianto rolled his eyes. “Told you it would be too wide.”
“The measurements are always a little off.”
“Not these days they’re not; everything’s very precise.”
Jack stepped back, glaring at the alcove as if it was to blame for being slightly too small. “But the new bookcase would look perfect there!” Suddenly his expression changed. “I know! All we have to do is take it apart again, cut a centimetre off all the shelves, and put it back together. Then it’ll fit!”
Ianto closed his eyes. It was going to be a long day!
The End

I've put together one shelf unit and 5 small cabinets by myself, and had an extra pair of hands for putting up the big shelf unit and getting the first of the sets of wall shelves back up. Two more sets to go, one of which I can handle by myself, the other I'll need help for. I'm a dab hand with flat-pack furniture!
It's good to get some of my books back home and where they belong.
Thank you!
