Designing with Angles and Side-Bent Metal Sheets
- Comments The direct way to set up the shelf is to have 4 angles standing vertically at the 4 corners of the rectangular side-bent metal sheet, angle-to-sheet fastened with screws, at least 1 at each corner. At this point the remaining question is how to support the shelf for rigidity.
Using short flat bars at each corner to produce a small triangular support structure is possible; alternatively wires or long flat bars can diagonally span two angles on a side around their middle sections.
