Description
I recently printed myself a handful of small (less than 100mm tall) figurines/busts, and wanted to display them on my wall. I tried printing one of the available hexagon shelfs on Makerworld, but I wasn't satisfied with it, so I decided to make my own.
Â
This design is a quick and easy print, with an almost negligible chance for lifting/warping. The frame, shelf, and backplates all print separately. Some small supports are used for the shelves, but in my print profile I've got the support settings such that the supports just pop right off, super easy.
Â
These are 115mm from outer point to outer point, giving approx. 92mm of vertical clearance for a figurine. You should be able to scale it up if needed without any issues. Â
Â
Just to be clear, this design is just the shelves, not the busts/figures in my photos. Those are other designs (not mine) that I printed to display on these shelves.
Â
Everything is friction fit, meaning that you might initially have some trouble getting the shelf into the slot, or getting the connector pieces into the appropriate holes. I had 100% success using a few light taps with a hammer to get them in. The backplates should just pop right in. You an put a little dab of glue to adhere the backplates in if you need to.
