AMS Shelf Brackets AMS shelf brackets for use with the Multiboard system. The AMS shelf brackets consist of left and right brackets with integrated Multiboard tiles. The brackets require at least 2 Multiboard 8x8 tiles for mounting and should be spaced 14 holes apart (left to right) and the pegs are 8 holes apart from each other (vertical).
Printed using standard Multiboard print setting. While it can be printed without any supports, supports are recommended, otherwise you will be cleaning up stringy leftovers around the push-fit pegs.
Mounting to your Multiboard The brackets attach to your Multiboard tiles via push-fit pegs that fit into Multiboard snaps. The brackets are then secured with t-bolts from the back. Use my Multiboard remixed t-bolts Multiboard T-Bolt 25mm head, 13mm length with 8mm offset, that lock the bracket into the Multiboard tile from the rear and also act as additional tile support against your mounting surface. Please visit the t-bolt model page download what you need there.
I personally use a Multiboard Weight-Bearing Directional Snap (normal snaps work fine as well) with one of my t-bolts on the top of each bracket. On the bottom pegs, I use the Multiboard 8 mm, T Mounting Offset Snap - DS Part A snaps mounted to the wall for additional support, as there's not much worry about the bottom pegs pulling out.
Depending on how you've mounted your Multiboard tiles you may want to add additional offset snap mounts anchored to the wall behind or around the brackets. I found it helpful to use a dual snap between tiles to prevent the tiles from flexing. The shelf brackets themselves are quite solid.
I highly recommend making sure that you secure the tiles around the bracket with wall anchors to prevent flexing of the Multiboard tiles. Again, the bracket themselves are rock solid and don't exhibit any flexing, but the tiles they are mounted to need to be solid themselves or the brackets and AMS will sag.
The spacing of the rear support is enough so that you can open the AMS cover enough to access everything you need.
