Purpose & Features:

ShelfLock is engineered to enhance your kitchen cabinet's shelf stability by fulfilling two critical roles:

  1. Offering robust shelf support.
  2. Filling the side gap to prevent existing support/pegs from dropping

Customizable Variables:

The Fusion 360 file contains two variables for easy customization:

  1. gap_filler: Adjust this variable to match the total gap size between the shelf length and the interior width of the cabinet.
  2. shelf_thickness: Customize this variable to fit the thickness of your specific shelf.

Installation:

Remove items from shelf before installation. Insert ShelfLock into the peg holes, ensuring it sits flush against the cabinet wall. Install the shelf onto the support pegs and conduct a stability test. Upload pictures!

Materials:

I've only attempted this with PLA on a Prusa Mk4. For increased durability, consider using PETG.

Disclaimer:

This model aims to improve shelf stability but cannot guarantee effectiveness. Users are encouraged to test its utility in their own setups. This model is intended for non-commercial use only. Be safe. Clear your shelves before installation, and avoid a kitchen floor covered in broken glass....
