Description

Decided to make an even stronger shelf support. Very impressed by the rigidity of the print.

This is a design inspired by a failed print of thingiverse.com/thing:34422. The object came unstuck just after the printing the bottom half. I was so impressed by the strength of the unfinished print I decided to make my own design that was half the size but also with a much larger surface area on the print bed to try to stop the object moving during print.

Instructions

Printed it with PLA at 175C, 0.35mm J-Head with a fairly slow print speed. 0.25mm layers and 20% infill.

As you can see this can hold a fair amount, very happy with it.

it would be cool if it was customizable so we could change the distance between the corner and the various holes.

It would but as I wanted to fillet a lot of the edges that would be difficult to achieve via something like openscad. Is there something in particular you were after?
