Description
Needed a little space in our medicine cabinet for small items that got in the way of larger items.
Of particular interest was my 3d printed toothpaste tube squeezer! LOL My fiancé insisted on starting a fresh one while I got the last of the old one. There was no space for the 3d printed squeezer.
So I designed a clip on shelf that just slips over the back of the existing 3/4 inch shelf. It gives an additional 1 inch height (35mm) by 6-1/2 inch length (170mm).
The first one I made was only 2 inches deep (60mm), not deep enough to hold the toothpaste squeezer, so I modified the original to be 3 inches deep (90mm) with sloping sides. The top of the shelf clamp is tapered from the back toward to front to eliminate a tall edge in the way on the shelf above.
You can easily modify either of these files to extend the length or height or size of the shelf clamp as needed :)
They're quick to print and need no supports when the flat back is placed on the print bed.
No post processing required, just take them off the print bed, clear a shelf so you can slide this behind it, and voila'!
