Under-Desk Storage Mount Brackets for Blick Sketch Pad Board (23.5" x 26")

Overview

A heavy-duty, low-profile under-desk mounting set engineered to store the Blick 23-1/2" x 26" Sketch Pad Board (#22945-1002) flush under your workspace. It clears up desk real estate while keeping your drawing board secure and instantly accessible.

Key Engineering & Technical Highlights

• FEA Validated (FOS > 8.5): Statistically analyzed in SolidWorks under a 40 N (~9 lbs) normal load. Peak stress measured at just 5.82 MPa against a 50 MPa yield strength, ensuring zero structural failure or sag under real-world use.

• CAD Source Files Included: Native SolidWorks (.SLDPRT) files are provided for easy modification or scaling to custom desk geometry.

• Precise Fitment: Full dimensional drawings are available in the photos for quick clearance verification before printing.

• Flush Hardware Mounts: Features countersunk screw holes so mounting hardware sits completely flush, preventing scratches or snagging on your board.

Recommended Print Settings

• Material: PETG, ABS, or high-infill PLA

• Layer Height: 0.20 mm or 0.28 mm

• Infill: 35% – 50% (Gyroid or Grid recommended for cantilever strength)

• Wall Loops / Perimeters: 4 to 5 (critical for mounting-hole strength under load)

• Orientation: Print flat on its side so layer lines run parallel to the desk, maximizing shear resistance against gravity.

• Supports: None required when printed flat on its side.

Installation

1. Check the dimensional drawing in the photos for clearance.

2. Predrill pilot holes under your desk to prevent splitting.

3. Align the left and right rails parallel using the sketch board as a spacing guide, then secure with screws.
