Looking for Cam Dowels

    We recently got a piece of second hand IKEA furniture and realised when we went to put it together that we're missing some of the bits. We can replace everything except the cam dowels. They're proving difficult to source either from local hardware shops or online does anyone have any ideas where we might find them?

    u can buy these in the ikea store from what looks like a cigarette machine at the back of the customer returns area, I think all packs are 3 euro

    Thanks for the suggestions, I've passed them on to Him Indoors and he says he's ordered them.

    Go back up to Ikea and buy the missing parts from the vending machines or self service aisles.

    Its not rocket science and its rather simple.

    Regards

    Not trying to ne smart here, but if the parts are missing shouldn't IKEA be supplying them for free. Why should you have to pay? (Unless ofcoures you really lost them when everything was spread all over the floor;))

    For second hand that's great. Sorry I missed that in the OP.
