An organic shelf that “grows” from your wall. If you need a small shelf for anything you want to make visible every day (like your favorite Benchy or a small plant) this is the one for you. This one is partially based on a 3d-scan of a real formitopsis pinicula I found in the forest.
Versions
- Piniculafungus_shelf_default: The default size
- Piniculafungus _holder_default: the holder for the default size with a screw-hole diameter of 5.5mm
- Piniculafungus _shelf_default_no_holder: The shelf without the cut-out intended for scaling down below the mini version – must be mounted with glue or tape
- Piniculafungus _shelf_small: A mini version (60% scale and adapted)
- Piniculafungus _holder_small: A holder for the mini version – simply scaling down the default version would make the holder unusable
- Piniculafungus _shelf_small_no_holder: The small shelf without the cut-out intended for scaling down below the mini version – must be mounted with glue or tape
- Piniculafungus _holder_for_upscaling: If you want a huge version, scale up the default shelf and use this holder – the only difference is the screw-hole size of 3mm that will be usable when scaled.
- Piniculafungus_shelf_magnet_internal: A version for making a fridge magnet with mid-printing insertion (40% scale)
- Piniculafungus_shelf_magnet_external: A version for making a fridge magnet (40% scale)
- Piniculafungus_shelf_extra_no_holder: The original optimized scan intended to be printed in small sizes to add as décor next to the shelves - must be mounted with glue or tape
Instructions
- Print the shelf and holder
- You can either screw or glue it onto your wall. There are various glue or tape products for wall fixation out there. I used 3M Tape. Old fashioned screws and dowels are the most reliable fixation.
- Insert the shelf by moving it horizontally onto the holder until the holder is completely inside the cutout. Then proceed to move the shelf down and the holder locks.
- Enjoy!
Instructions fridge magnet Magnet required: a 20 x 2 mm neodymium magnet
Internal magnet
- The internal magnet shelf file has a cutout inside to place a magnet during the printing process. All mushroom wall shelf designs have the cutout at the same height – so you can print all of them at the same time.
- Use a copper nozzle for printing (nonmagnetic)
- Slice the file and check the layer height of the last layer before the bridging over the hollow cutout starts. With a 0.4mm nozzle it should be at layer 15. Implement a pause after that layer with your slicer.
- Start the print
- At the pause insert the magnet and continue printing. As always be careful with magnets and electronic parts!
External magnet
- Print the file
- Glue in the magnet after the printing process – the cut-out is sized to let the magnet stand out just a bit
