If you really want a custom sink & top, then what everyone has said is true, without IKEA’s special plumbing, the pipes won’t fit. If it were me and I was determined to use Hemnes but not an IKEA sink, then I just wouldn’t build the top drawer, and instead just attach it to the frame from behind with some flat brackets from the hardware store. Then you have that entire upper area for the sink and plumbing and you can still use the bottom drawer like normal. I have installed hemnes vanities with ikea sinks in my last two houses and they hold up really well. Good luck! I hope it turns out exactly as you envisioned! Answer from Adora_Mae on reddit.com

One of my favorite successes of our "two bathrooms in four days" reno projects was the affordable, cute, clean and modern bathroom vanity we created out of an IKEA sink cabinet! Here's a bit of a tutorial for you! IKEA Hemnes 2-drawer sink cabinet in 31.5" or 40.5" (this will not work as well with other models, since the pre-drilled holes will be centered on the drawers--you would have to use a cup-style pull covering the hole)

January 26, 2021 - I hadn’t told them yet, but I also wanted a wide sink so that two kids could stand side-by-side to wash their hands. They didn’t disappoint: they told me that was unlikely to work in such a small bathroom. To them I basically said, “Hold my coffee.” Then I hacked a vanity that ticked all the boxes. Unsurprisingly (if you know me,) it started at IKEA.
