3D Printer Stand

thingiverse

Decided to share something not usually shared with others. Built this for my new 3D printer, utilizing it in a creative way. Had purchased a plastic shelf unit at Lowe's but found that it shook around excessively due to its instability. Liked the dimensions of it and the shelves themselves. Decided that I could build something similar, yet more stable, fairly inexpensively. Scoured numerous workbenches and shelves for inspiration before deciding to take on the project. Invested $50 in wood and spent over 4-5 days building it. The main legs are constructed from 2x4 lumber while the shelf sections are made from 2x3 boards. The tops of the shelves feature 1/2 inch particle board. Painted it a warm milkshake brown color with a dollop of whipped cream on top of the shelves, adding a decorative touch. Included a build sheet and an STL file for reference purposes as a placeholder. Important note: When creating the 3D model, measure and cut the white parts according to the height of the shelf material used. For instance, if you use 1/2 inch particle board, they will be shorter than if you use 3/4 inch material. To simplify the process, consider using a standard length like 12 or 13 inches for the bottom and adjust the top parts accordingly.
