Wireless Access Point Wall Shelf v2

prusaprinters

<p>I designed this wall mounted shelf so I could still have my WiFi AP (Ubiquiti U6-Pro in this case) mounted near the ceiling but without having to drill holes in the ceiling. I designed it so that I could also mount an AP on the top of the shelf (ie, mounted in the basement ceiling to broadcast the signal up to the first floor).</p><p>I mounted the shelf to the wall with 3M Command Strips. I would have mounted the AP on the ceiling with the strips but they aren't kind on a textured surface and have destroyed them before.</p><p>The shelf is 200 mm in diameter. This might be enough space for the larger APs out there? In case others want to do a remix I've included the .step file too.<br><br>I intentionally did not add any AP bracket mount holes to the design as depending on the AP the mount holes may be in different places. I used bolts to mount my AP's mounting plate but I could have also used 3M Command Strips I suspect.</p><p>I wanted this to print as fast as possible so I printed it with a .8 nozzle with the following settings in Prusa Slicer:</p><p>Print Settings: 0.55 DRAFT</p><p>Filament: eSUN PLA PRO (PLA+)</p><p>Printer: Original Prusa i3 MK3S+</p><p>Infill: 10%</p><p>Perimeters: 8 (Makes it stronger! But with using a .8 nozzle and PLA +/Pro this many perimeters might be overkill.)</p><p>Variable Layer Height: Adaptive (Quality/Speed: 0.50)</p><p>Sharing this in case someone else might have a need for something like this. Enjoy!</p>
