Ikea hack: Mulig shelving unit proRoomba

pinshape

Makit presents...our very first Ikea hack, transforming a Mulig shelving unit into a Roomba-friendly masterpiece! Have you ever wondered why some furniture isn't designed with proRoomba capabilities in mind? If you own a Roomba robot vacuum, you've probably asked yourself the same question: what's the point of having a top-notch cleaning system if it can't navigate under our furniture with ease? My goal was to create a home that's fully compatible with my trusty "personal assistant" – that's my Roomba robot for those who don't know! Recently, I purchased an Ikea Mulig shelving unit and discovered it required an extra 20mm of clearance for the Roomba to glide underneath. So, I designed a simple yet effective leg extension to increase the clearance, and voilà – my Roomba can now zip under the shelves without any issues! Isn't that just awesome? Here are the printing settings I used: Time: approximately one hour per leg Layer height: 0.3mm Print speed: 50mm/s Outer shell print speed: 20mm/s Infill percentage: 25% (a bit of extra strength never hurts!) Supports: none Slicer software: Cura 15.04.2
