Tool-Free Kitchen Cabinet Rod Brackets – Ø12 mm

Tool-Free Kitchen Cabinet Rod Brackets – Ø12 mm

A simple bracket for adding a 12 mm wooden rod inside a kitchen cabinet, using the existing shelf-pin holes.

The bracket slots into the standard holes without screws, drilling or tools. Two brackets are needed per rod: print one normally and mirror it in your slicer for the opposite side.

I designed it to hang spray cleaning products underneath a kitchen cabinet, but there are plenty of other possible uses:

• Hang spray bottles from their triggers

• Store cleaning cloths or small brushes

• Hang rolls of kitchen paper (see remix idea below)

• Hang reusable shopping bags

• Hang rubber gloves

• Hang small baskets or containers

• Hang ribbons, string or other rolls

• Hanging kitchen utensils

The nice thing is that the rod can simply be removed or repositioned whenever you want to change the storage setup.

Remix Idea:
The current design clamps the 12 mm rod quite firmly, which is great for hanging spray bottles and other items. However, this also means that the rod can't easily be removed without first taking one of the brackets out of the cabinet.
For use as a paper towel holder, the brackets could be modified so that the rod can be lifted out vertically. This would make changing the paper towel roll much easier while keeping the brackets permanently installed.
I haven't made this modification myself, but it should be a fairly simple change to the bracket geometry and could make a nice remix.
