Description

I designed these for my father-in-law, who is in the process of converting a Ford Transit Connect in to a small camper. He wanted to install a shelf over the drivers seat in his high topped Connect, but couldn't find a bracket that sat flush with the side of the van.

This bracket has been designed with a 115 degree angle, allowing it to sit flush to the side wall of the van whilst providing a sturdy, flat base for a shelf to sit on. 

Four wall loops provide a good amount of strength, bolstered by a 20% gyroid infill. Additionally, object modifiers have been applied to the bottom and top 1.8mm of the bracket (the flat side walls) to increase the infill at the edges to 75%. 

The holes will comfortably accommodate an M4 screw, with four holes on each bracket to ensure a good, solid hold.

As you can see from the images, the bracket is pretty strong! The example shown supporting a 16kg kettlebell is printed in PETG-CF with a 0.6mm nozzle. I have also created a print profile for standard PETG, though I have not put one printed with that material through its paces yet. 

Hopefully someone else finds it useful!
