A project requested/ suggested by the other person who pays rent in my apartment.

Modeled in Solidworks based on rough dimensions which I found through her description to 'have a shelf half way between the base and the glass, oh and maybe you can make use of the holes in the wall thats there already'.

I designed the shlef and the other parts with cut-outs to save on plastic and becasue 'why not?'

My rough dimesions ended up being quite rough and I needed to print some feet for the vertical support to keep the shelf level.

I also needed use some 'blu-tak' to hold the structure in place. The pegs i designed were good for locating and holding roughly but I gave it too much tolerance and it would pop out from the wall easily.

I printed all the big flat pieces on the 0.8mm nozzle as perfect quality wsant important to me however that probably didnt help my tolerances issue.

If you would like to print the same thing, I would be happy to share the files with you. Although you may be better off designing your own.
