Are you happy with the 8″ Capita legs or in hind sight, would you have preferred either the 4″ or 6″ capita legs?

Yes, in one of its worst moves ever, IKEA discontinued its wonderful Traby, their best quality modular bookcase series. It can be found in its UK and Ireland sites, though.
If I could, I’d still buy a lot more of these, if only they were available at my local IKEA store.

Drat! It doesn’t look like the TRABY link works anymore, and I can’t find it on the Ikea site. It is possible they’ve discontinued these pieces? It’s pretty much exactly what I want to make, I’m not intimidated by a few hacks, and the versions I’ve found elsewhere are far too pricey!

Do you always use latex based paint for painting the Veneer/Particle board wood. A guy in the paint shop once told me I would need to use oil based paint, but I have heard its unsafe. Have you ever used oil based paint in any of your projects?
