Library Shelving by Jennifer

thingiverse

This is a set of three library shelves designed for diorama, Dungeons & Dragons, Wargaming, etc. The set includes a bookshelf along with two shelving units for storing stacks of scrolls, one with square cubbies and another with diamond-shaped cubbies. If you search Google Images for scroll storage, you'll see where I got my ideas from. The scroll rack can also be used as a wine rack. These shelves are textured with wood grain, made possible by using my existing wood grain sculpt from my Tavern Tiles. In the photos, the diamond-shaped one was the printed, cleaned-up model with knife and painted. The other ones were made of popsicle sticks, but I've included 3D models for each of those as well. These shelves are compatible with popsicle stick bookshelves when dimensioned accordingly - simply rescale to your liking. The photo is of six back-to-back shelving units, not three; I glue multiple units together since I'm creating library aisle rows. This arrangement helps them stand easier as well. After printing, the shelves will need some cleanup with a knife - scraping edges and surfaces to remove any bumps. Be very careful when doing this, keeping your fingers out of the path of the knife, as it can slip unexpectedly. It's best to use a vice to hold the piece like the 3D model you can download from Thingiverse.
