About this generator
A shelf that seems to grow out of the wall. Two screws, and nothing to see.
How to use
- Set the width and depth.
- Print it standing on its back.
- Put two screws in the wall, level, at the spacing of the keyholes, heads 4 mm out.
- Hang the shelf over the heads and push it down.
Printing tips
- Print standing on the wall side, as shown: the top comes out smooth and there are no supports.
- Use 4 walls and 20 % infill or more. Thick at the wall is what makes it strong.
- For light things: a plant, a speaker, keys, a phone. Not for books or anything fragile and heavy.
- The keyholes sit about two thirds of the width apart; measure them on the print before drilling.

Frequently asked questions
How much weight can it carry?
A kilo or two near the wall, less at the front edge. The wall plugs and screws matter as much as the print.
Shelves wider than 220 mm?
They get a third keyhole in the middle. The width must still fit your printer bed.
