Description

Bed canopy using Ikea curtains and curtain rods!

Utilizing four Ikea räcka(racka) curtain rods, I made an corner that holds the curtain rods and allows them to be hung from the ceiling.
The model is designed to be press fit. It can be a fairly tight fit, especially on the smaller end of the curtain rod so I suggest removing the plastic end cap that comes with the räcka curtain rods.

For our bed we used the two 120-210cm rods and two 210-380cm rods. No matter what size bed you have, all of Ikeas rods are the same diameters so this mod should fit.
The curtain rods has one smaller diameter size and one larger diameter size. Printing four of the same model will allow you to fasten the rods from small to large to small to large, going around in a "circle".

I suggest printing the model at a 45° angel (as pre-sliced in my print profile) with supports, so that the layers run diagonally through the model and increase the shear strength. Supports should break away nicely and leave a fairly clean surface finish.
Print at a low layer height and slow (50%, silent mode) for a nicer finish.

Items needed:

2 to 4: Räcka curtain rods.
16x: 4mm screws with a flat “bottom” head.
Optional: drill and plugs depending on the material you're fastening the curtain rod holders to.
Suggested: a normal screwdriver for tightening the screws as the rod holders can be in the way.
