Description

Parametric design of a Gridfinity shelf that mounts to Ikea SKÅDIS pegboard using the T-Clip system. Includes parts for sizes from 1x1 to 6x4.

Painstakingly designed to maximise strength and minimise filament by printing each part in the optimal orientation. Parts snap together securely without glue or fasteners. Modular components allow you to mix and match to get your ideal configuration.

The shelf is held tightly on the SKÅDIS pegboard using the Skadis T-Clip System by Line Arc Line: https://www.printables.com/model/256896-skadis-t-clip-system

The front banner components are an optional front support that provides a surface to put labels on. You may wish to use multiple support arms to support your shelf, so you will have to be clever with which front banner pieces you decide to use to connect your support arms.

The SKÅDIS holes have 40mm spacing, while the Gridfinity cells are 42mm. This means they don't line up gracefully. I believe I have made the best compromise with the skadis panels that are included in this set.

Edit this design on Onshape: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/9caa6cc98cba9f571e467d07/w/5b8ef44bae5bb27dd1ecc1b6/e/f72f9242b48c5aad47fc8a28

Note: Though the design is parametric, there are patterns that need to be adjusted at certain sizes. The Onshape document is not particularly well-organised and will be a little unfriendly to edit.

Why is there no x5 and x6 front panel included?

Okay, I'll see - you should use three support arms and a x2 and x3 front panel for wider parts

Totally. When the shelf is 4 or more cells wide, I use multiple support arms. If you use multiple support arms, you have to use smaller front panels that fit between them. So I didn't think it made sense to make wider front panels... I wanted people to use more support arms.

Also the front panels are pretty optional. They do square it up pretty nicely and it feels sturdy, but I think the support arms are all that's needed.

If you really wanted to make a 5 or 6 cell wide front panel, you could open the design in Onshape, change the X parameter, and export the front panel.
