This allows you to use the Ikea Pax as a display case, and maybe more specifically, just single shelf.

This is print has an inner and outer part, and requires you to embed magnets.

The inner part goes into the peg holes on the side of the pax unit, the outer part magnets to that part and keeps a sheet of plexi glass installed.  Use 4 sets, and you can hold a piece of plexiglass in.

The magnets are 8x3mm. You can find them on Amazon pretty easily.  To embed the magnets, use your slicer to figure out right when the magnet is about to be covered, insert a printing pause there, and pop the magnets in.  Make sure the word “wall” on the print is right side up, and you will be able to pop the magnets in with same orientation.

For plexi glass, you can order custom cut pieces on Amazon, cut it your self, or have a hardware store cut it to size for you.

Note: The pint spacing came from the “Ikea Pax” model by JirkaBaa.
