Shelf Bracket for 2" X 10" Board

thingiverse

Taking a simple concept and turning it into an industrial-style design perfect for everyday use was my goal. I envisioned a flowing I-beam supporting a sturdy 2x10" board, keeping in mind that the actual width is around 9.25". To achieve this look, I designed a large bracket that should fit easily on any printer - mine printed vertically without any support needed. The screw holes are perfectly sized for #10 screws. As for weight capacity, I'm unsure of its exact limit but it's currently holding up a 3-foot long 2x10" board with ease. I'm using it to keep my 3D printing gear organized and tidy. I created the brackets from 1.75mm orange PLA on my MakerBot printer, which is a SeeMeCNC model, likely running at around 60°C for the bed temperature and possibly 210°C for the extruder temperature. The fan kicks in on the third layer and I estimate I used about 20% infill for this project. I designed all of this using Inventor.
