Tall Wood Board Monitor Stand - Strait / Corner Versions

thingiverse

<h1>Before Printing or Purchasing Wood</h1> <b>It is recommended to print the sizer file before printing any sides to make sure they will fit well with your wood.</b> You can take the sizer to the store to ensure that you find flat wood at the store, If you need to scale the sides up or down a bit to create a smooth fit it is way easier to print the sizer scaled up 5% and down 5% before wasting filament on a part that won't fit your wood. <h1>Requirements</h1> <ol> <li>You will need a piece of wood, that is 1" tall by 8" wide. (I bought a 1" x 8" x 4' piece)</li> <li>You should look for oak or pine for strength if possible.</li> <li>Before you buy the wood look down the piece of wood the long way to ensure you're buying a flat piece of wood for your stand.</li> <li>Any warping in the wood will make it difficult to slide on the side pieces.</li> </ol> <h1>Tips</h1> I recommend a shelf support every 2 - 3 feet on the wooden board, if you plan on making a very long shelf like is pictured. I only used 2 over about 6 feet and the board began to sag after a while. <h1>Updates</h1> 6/28/2019 - Added 45 Degree connector piece. One that requires supports and one that does not require supports. <i>I have plans to make a few attachments for this stand in the future. Stay tuned for a phone shelf and a tablet shelf in the future. </i>
