Whirlpool Microwave Model# WM8650XS rack holder

thingiverse

This is for an extremely antiquated microwave from Whirlpool that my brother reported had a plastic component that secures a metal shelf which was broken. I included two distinct yet almost identical stl's because I reside in a different state than him so I couldn't verify if it made a difference with a larger hole in the curve or not. I printed with ABSR-3 white from M3D. The print job consisted of 90% infill, and I printed sideways for enhanced support. (Simply turn it on either the right or left side.) I employed supports with breakaway characteristics since it was small so it would result in a smoother, more professional-looking print. It differs from the original design as the original was intended to be inserted and not removed, which is what caused the problem in the first place. It has a slightly different appearance than the original but should be satisfactory as all the mounting components are accurately dimensioned. I'm uncertain if it will fit any other microwaves, and as I mentioned earlier, it's extremely old, so it's unlikely that anyone else will encounter this issue, but here it is anyway...
