A simple bracket for the 30cm-deep Ikea Ivar, which can support two parallel rods betwixt spools of filament can safely rest.

I've used 20mm diameter steel rods to support my spools, but other diameters of rod will work perfectly well. Remember to print two brackets, or your shelf will be wonky!

What You'll Need

  • The 30cm-deep Ikea Ivar shelving unit.
  • Eight steel dowels for the Ikea Ivar.
  • Two rods of suitable strength and diameter (~20mm diameter is what I've used).
  • Two brackets printed in your favourite colour!
  • Optional: Four cable ties to fasten rods to the shelf.

Assembly Instructions

  1. Insert four steel dowels on either side of your Ivar at the desired height.
  2. Clip one bracket into each of the sets of four steel dowels, so that the two grooves are on the top.
  3. Place each rod into the grooves of each bracket so that they run parallel and level.
  4. Optional: Insert a cable tie into each of the two inner holes of each bracket and then fasten them around the rods to secure them in place. Clip the loose ends to make them neat!
  5. Adorn your lovely new shelf with your favourite filament spools!

Printing Instructions

I print the bracket upside down (in the orientation provided in the *.gcode file). The model has been designed to be printed with a 200um layer height, but I suspect it'll work perfectly well at 300um high too.
