Description

Due to my other design, (found here: https://makerworld.com/en/models/97332#profileId-103873) using a fair amount of support filament I created this design with a triangle pattern in the center area. It can be printed upside down requiring only a small amount of supports for the inside of the post holes. My tests showed the holes on the side held their shape perfectly.

 

The end result, ironically, uses more filament than the other design but that is due to the triangles spanning the width of the brace creating a stronger part.

 

Print as many middle parts as necessary depending on how many levels you would like and print the braces if you are extending the length of the shelf rods longer than approximately 30" or 76 cm.

 

It was designed for ¾ inch dowel rods. If you need something other than ¾ inch simply add a negative part in the slicer and make the hole .15mm larger than the size of you dowel rod so it will fit nicely. You may want to make a test part prior to printing an entire frame piece. The vertical rods are 196mm which provides a small amount of clearance for a 200mm spool.

 

Use #6 screws to fasten the frame to the rod. I recommend at least a 20mm or 1" screw length.

 

Update #1: Added new profile with thinner triangles for less filament use.

 

Update #2 No updates to these files but have created an adapter system for using small spools.

Thanks, great pic. I was waiting for someone to build over three rows.

are those just ziplock bags you're keeping your filament in? Looking for some kind of long term storage for my spools as well, this looks good but my house can get a little humid. I'm debating between this with thick plastic bags and dessicant, or clear cerealbox spool holders that I print directly out of with ptfe tubing so i hardly ever open the box once filament is dried, and even when printing filament wouldn't be exposed to the air.

Replying to @techquestyt :
Some are regular ziplock bags, but i've been slowly converting over to the vacuum bags as I use a roll. It's not super humid in my area, so I have had 0 issues with moisture. Link for the type of bags https://a.co/d/2HkGFut

maybe not as stable as I'd like , but does the job and scalable, so I can fit it in were ever I want, very happy.

To add stability you could either add middle braces, glue the vertical posts in if you haven't or cut them shorter. I planned them to be just tall enough for the spools to fit. It appears yours are a bit taller.
