Whirlpool Maytag and Kirkland Refrigerator Shelf Bracket

Whirlpool Maytag and Kirkland Refrigerator Shelf Bracket

Description

This bracket is a slight modification from the original designer. I thank him more than he know for this design..!!! The original had a few design flaws but I fixed the design and now you guys get the new and improved version. :) Hope you guys enjoy. FYI: this bracket seems to fit many refrigerators. There are at least three brands that I know of so far. So this may fit your fridge buy please look at the door and the original bracket to see if yours is similar. Original design..! https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2471752 **********!!!!!.....PRINTING DETAILS.....!!!!!********** *****I printed this is PETG but I would imagine PLA would work as well.***** *****Do NOT print it laying flat..! IT WILL CRACK...!!!!! ***** * upcale the model to 101%..! (I found tit a bit too tight at 100% for my liking) That amy be because of the PETG i used but that's what I did to get good results. When printing this baracket print it in the uprite position on it's side (like in the photos) and at a 20 to 25 degree angle(like in the photos). This helps with strength and flexibility...! I used supports and believe their needed. Infill was set to 20% with three perimeters all the way around(you can probably use more or less but that's what I went with). I printed the PETG at 142 degree nozzle and a 80 degree bed temp, and the fan was set to 40% (use your own temps/ settings...!) Also the holes are for 1/2 inch doll rods. I got mine at Hobby Lobby but any 1/2 doll rod should work. I cut the doll rods to 23 inch lenghts I believe. Also use a razor blade to make sure the bracket doesnt have any hanging filiment or the doll rod may not fit.(its a tight fit btw... FYI: the bracket may have some wiggle on the door but once both are installed with the doll rods the whole unit tightens up quite a bit. ***************Summary*************** * Upscale to 101% or it wont fit properly...!!! (it comes scaled to 100% and you can try it but I found it too tight for my liking.) * Print at 25 degree angle. * May print without supports but I used them and think their needed. (I believe my support setting was 50 or 60) * Infill: 20% cubic * Speed 35mm/sec on all settings (many will find this slow but I like printing slow. You can obviously print as fast as u like) I thinks that's it...! Print and enjoy and be sure to thank the original designer If you've any questions feel free to ask and I'll do my best to answer them...!!! Thanks a million...!!!! :) All this was printed on my stock CR-10 mini btw.
