Ikea Lack Shelf Mounting Template

thingiverse

I was on a mission to install some floating Lack shelves from Ikea, but I was falling flat on my face. The lathe and plaster walls were giving me a run for my money, combined with shelf mounts designed by Goldilocks (screws had to be JUST RIGHT in size and spacing) that made me want to pull my hair out. A voice in the back of my head was screaming “This is a job for the 3D printer!”\r\n\r\nI quickly whipped up a simple design using Blockscad3d (https://www.blockscad3d.com/) and printed three of them on my own printer. After the print, I had the shelves hung in no time.\r\n\r\nThe link to the shelving is below. I think I used 1.5” #6 screws for hanging.\r\n\r\nhttp://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/50282177/\r\n\r\nGood luck if you are going to hang these shelves.
