Updated 5th Nov 2025  Add a sideways mounting option to show off the bookend designs better and a base to allow use as a book-nook.

Updated 14th June 2026 Add pre-supported option for side mounting 

These files comprise the mounting rail system that can be used with my architectural bookend designs that are found in a this collection.

I've provided standard bookends that clip together, along with rail extensions, a plain section of mounting rail for you to customize, and some stand-alone bookend bases.

If anyone else wants to make additional bookends that are compatible with this system they are very welcome to do so. Just link back to this design for the rails (don't republish my designs, just link to them!)

This bookend system has been designed to a large scale and it's expected that you'll have to scale it down to make it fit your books and your printer! So long as all parts are scaled equally they'll all still fit together properly, although if you scale to less than 50% you may find that you need to use your printers x/y compensation setting to make sure that clearances are large enough.
