Rails for IKEA OMAR shelves.

prusaprinters

The one negative thing with IKEA OMAR is that the back and sides are open. This is the solution.What you need:M3 nuts and bolts, 2-4 per clamp.Enough 10mm rods / pipes / … for the sides you want to put rails on. I used 10 mm aluminum pipes, which I had lying around in the garage.Tools:ScrewdriverSomething to cut the pipes with. I recommend a pipe cutter.RulerMarkerInstructions:Print enough clamps. I used 20 mm speed, don't remember the infill, but go for something like 20%. Measure, mark, measure, then cut the pipes to size. I recommend going about 5 mm short compared to the distance between the OMAR rods.Mount one clamp on the OMAR. Don't over-tighten, you need to be able to adjust it a bit.Insert the rod in the clamp on the OMAR. Put a clamp piece on the other end of the rod. Mount the second clamp.Check for height, tighten the bolts.You might notice that the clamps look different in the pictures. I iterated the design until I found something I reasonably liked, but since there is nothing fundamentally wrong with the older versions I used them to avoid wasting plastic.The FreeCad file is included, feel free to modify if you wish.
