3D model description

A small floating stair for household feline friends or other small animals that like to climb.

One stair with 4 of the screws you see pictured holds our cat easily. He weighs about 25lbs and has a solid surface to step on.

We used WallClaw Anchors for our screws and the steps are fitted with slide holes on the back specifically for this screw.

Here is a link for the anchors >

To mount them we recommend replacing them on your wall or surface with some double-sided tape or have a friend hold them to get an idea of your placement.

Once you're happy simply use a pencil and mark the edges.

After that, you can use a ruler to measure out the center of the big end of the slots and make your marks so you can place the anchor in the right spot.

Included is a .3MF and a.SLDPRT

We chose to print ours with a fuzzy skin to help our cat get a better grip however do note that if you do print with fuzzy skin the holes will come out slightly smaller than intended as fuzzy skin adds .32mm's to the object.

We hollowed out the holes with a Dremel.

Printed on the Dremel 3D20 with ProtoPasta Black
