Description
My wife got some pantry shelf food organizers from the company named Shelf Reliance, they are a product in the FIFO Collection.
They work great except for oddball can sizes so I made a design to print my own dowels.
Print without auto-generated support, I built-in custom support for the tabs on the end (clear in CAD images). These custom supports should easily “snap off” after printing.
Fusion 360 CAD file included so you can design your own. Of course if you know your way around PrusaSlicer you can cut the object in the middle and pull in or out as needed. DON'T just scale the model, the tabs won't work right. Dowels should be 5-6mm longer than the can height, maybe even more extra space. 5mm worked for me but it's tighter than the factory ones. Note: In Fusion 360 to edit the length you can double click on the length measurement that shows up in the design view.
These lock pretty tight when rotated so you might need to use pliers to twist them.
