Shelving Mount

thingiverse

Hi all, I designed a 3-part wall-mounted shelving arm that's easy to assemble. To get started, you'll need 3/4-inch thick, 6-inch wide panels as the main shelf. This unit can be mounted securely on both dry walls and concrete walls using two 2 3/16-inch screws. Make sure you choose a screw length that's long enough to pass through the mount and into the wall. Assembling this shelving arm is straightforward: * Measure, mark, and drill your top hole location with precision. * Attach one screw to the mounting part and check if it's level before marking the next hole. Alternatively, you can mark the bottom hole 30mm from the top for a quicker setup. * Tighten everything securely and you're halfway there! * Next, glue the two arms together and slide them onto the mounting part. That's it! However, keep in mind that leveling the two mounts together might require some extra effort. To achieve this, cut a small square piece from the top panel to ensure it remains flush with the arms. For optimal stability, I recommend using two arms for every 2-2.5ft of shelving length, measured outside-to-outside of each mount. The weight capacity will depend on the material you choose and your personal infill settings. If you plan on loading heavy items, I suggest a 100% infill setting for maximum support.
