Long Story Short really junky shelf brackets at the hardware store are overpriced, pretty much useless and I am a cheap. I printed a bunch of these in the cheapest PETG I had (I think was (12,99). They worked out to $1.67 CAD each.

 

This is about $200 cheaper than going to the hardware store for the 12 brackets I made, however I only got shelf brackets and no new tools this way, still pleased about it though.

 

The shelf is printed in two halves with 4 connector pins. I recommend using a good glue in the slots like E600 or JB Weld (not CA like crazy/super glue is weakens the plastic). I glues some and didn't glue others, both worked but the glued ones just hide there seam better once screwed to the wall. I used 5 x ¾ wood screws for mounting the shelf, and 5 x 1 ½ for mounting to the studs. The shelves pictured are 65 x x12 x 3/4' MDF.

Generic Black PETG

In your image, they are supporting 50kg at about 20cm from the wall. Thats actually genuinely impressive, nice work! If you need to support more than 50kg (ie a little more is the the weight of an 85" TV) then you need to reconsider what you are putting on walls IMO. :D
