Ikea Hack - ink palettes
Last night’s trip to IKEA produced an great find for print shops everywhere. The MALM line of dressers is now coming with optional glass tops in either smoky gray or white.
Available in 3 sizes, the white glass tops are the perfect ink palettes. They range from $10-$30, come pre-beveled on all edges, and are perfectly white on the back. This is almost cheaper than buying plate glass.
Here are ours (the medium and small sizes), installed today at BPS:
Here’s the link at the IKEA online shop: http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/40160647/
Find out if they’re available near you.
Here’s hoping it stands the test of time. Heck, at that price we’d replace it yearly (if they keep it in stock that long).
