IKEA Veberod Shelf and Drawer clips (prevents OCD flareups)

thingiverse

I own a pair of IKEA Veberöd shelves that really impress me. The frames are made from sturdy steel square tubing and the shelves and drawers are crafted from finished plywood. https://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/10343328/ My only gripe about these shelves is that they lack stops for the drawers. Instead, they ride on open steel runners at both ends. Unless I carefully positioned each drawer, they wouldn't sit flush with the frame, which really got my OCD going. The clips in this project attach to the steel frame behind every drawer and provide a satisfying stop by way of little protrusions or wings, keeping all the drawers aligned and letting me sleep soundly at night. There are three clip styles: 1. Single Clip: Attaches to the frame posts at the back of each drawer. If you have only one Veberöd shelf, you'll need two single clips per drawer -- six in total. 2. Double Clip, with wings: Attaches across the frame posts of two adjacent Veberöd shelves. If, like me, you have this configuration of shelves, you'll need one single clip and one double clip per row of drawers -- three single clips and three double clips in total. 3. Double Clip, without wings: Like its winged sibling, this clip provides a way to connect two adjacent Veberöd shelves, but are designed for use on non-drawer shelf rows. They offer additional support without unsightly protrusions. NOTE: After several months of using my clips, which I printed in PLA, I noticed that the clips can lose shape due to constant pressure. As a result, I recommend printing them in PETG or similar filament.
