Fridge Door Shelf Clips by schmarty Nov 11, 2009

Description

Clips for a refrigerator shelf restraint.

I recently moved into a new apartment with a missing bottom shelf restraint. Thanks to MakerBot and OpenSCAD, I can finally replace it!

The hole on the left side is a bit more damaged than the right, so I created 2 different clips.

One fun exercise when creating this thing was modeling an M5 nut in order to remove it from the model later. I recommend everyone try it. :)

3D printing is great for replacing specific parts like this where you probably couldn't buy a replacement even if you wanted to. Also, I recently converted to OpenSCAD too!
