<h3><strong>Industrial design furniture made from 3/4 inch water pipes.</strong></h3><p>&nbsp;</p><p>With these connectors, different types of furniture can be built from commercially available water pipes and wooden boards.<br>The 3/4 inch water pipes (26.3mm) are available in DIY stores almost all over the world, very stable and relatively cheap.<br>The easiest way to cut the water pipes is with a pipe cutter. You can also use a saw, but it takes longer<br><br>Depending on how the use changes, the furniture can be easily redesigned.</p><p>There is a one-sided and a two-sided connector.<br>The connector for the panels brings more stability to the construction - similar to a back panel on a cabinet.<br>The feet are height-adjustable to compensate for unevenness.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><h5>Printing instructions:</h5><p><br>Print in PETG, ABS or ASA.<br>Please do not print in PLA, it will not last in the long run.</p><p>Wall thickness 5 layers<br>Layer height 0.2 mm<br>Infill min. 25%<br>No support</p><p>&nbsp;</p><h4>Material:<br>&nbsp;</h4><p>You need a hexagon bolt M8 x 30 and a nut M8 for each foot.<br>For each connector you need a hexagon socket screw M5 x 20 and a nut M5 and wood screws to attach the boards.<br>M5 x 20 means that the thread length is 20mm. The total length of the M5 screw with head is 25mm. The total length of the M8 screw is approx. 35mm.</p><figure class="table"><table><tbody><tr><td><figure class="image image-style-align-right image_resized" style="width:66.17%;"><img src="https://media.printables.com/media/prints/201938/rich_content/cc89300c-6f69-470c-9dd0-4012206766b4/signal-2022-05-15-101015_003.jpeg#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%2259d5a635-9b9a-4488-bd97-970fe0132e43%22%2C%22w%22%3A868%2C%22h%22%3A702%7D"></figure></td><td><figure class="image image-style-align-left image_resized" style="width:66.81%;"><img src="https://media.printables.com/media/prints/201938/rich_content/e74faec8-cf21-40e5-bf31-44f557cadb27/signal-2022-05-15-102316_001.jpeg#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%22c002c83c-69f6-48a3-831b-39b1b353440c%22%2C%22w%22%3A1123%2C%22h%22%3A894%7D"></figure></td></tr></tbody></table></figure><h4>&nbsp;</h4><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><figure class="image"><img src="https://media.printables.com/media/prints/201938/rich_content/2db072b8-51ed-46ab-92bb-2296de1b8851/signal-2022-05-15-101015_001.jpeg#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%2291df9d38-ece9-4f59-91b9-ef153c9b1fbc%22%2C%22w%22%3A1153%2C%22h%22%3A2048%7D"></figure><p>&nbsp;</p><h4><br>&nbsp;</h4><h4>Assembly instructions for a shelf:</h4><p>&nbsp;</p><figure class="image"><img src="https://media.printables.com/media/prints/201938/rich_content/df121086-1b77-4fd8-8a28-31b3b5eae282/wpc1.jpeg#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%22efdec683-7c35-4580-b8b5-44200f28c2cc%22%2C%22w%22%3A1320%2C%22h%22%3A2048%7D"></figure><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>There are several ways to mount the connectors.
