Materials Needed: - Drill with a philips head attachment - 4g, 12mm (1/2 inch) cabinet screws (black preferred) - Pre-cut plywood sheets from your local hardware shop that offers free timber cutting, like Masters Plywood Specifications: We used 1200x450x6mm (4'x 1 1/2'x 1/4") plywood sheets and had them cut to size. Printing Requirements: Each box requires 8 XYZ Connect pieces for fixing the corners. Recommended printing settings include a shell thickness of at least 1.2mm and 60% infill. For wider boxes, use additional XYZ Connect_Side and XYZConnect_back pieces to enhance stability. Assemble your shelves using the holes in the XYZ Connect pieces as guides for screw placement. Pre-drilling the holes on the plywood sheets makes fixing the screws easier. Box dimensions featured in the cover photos: 1)740x450x450mm, 2)595x280x450mm, 3)450x450x450mm, and 4)450x280x450mm.
