Ikea Replacement Dowel 5.5x50

thingiverse

Ikea short changed me five dowel units, making new ones was more cost and time efficient than driving down to get some more. Thus I present you with a compatible dowel for holes that are approximately 5.5mm wide and require a 50mm dowel. I deliberately didn't round the ends as it's not necessary and allows you to easily resize the length without distortion. They are kinda bendy, so I am pairing the real dowel with this throughout the whole Kallax shelving unit so there is no one point that is weaker than the other. Went with a hexagon shape because that's more stable on the print bed. Printed horizontally because that works better for strength when orientated for my usage.
