Google Home Electrical Outlet Shelf by viettamluu

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

This is a little shelf for the Google Home speaker device, designed to glue to an electrical outlet outlet wall plate that sets the Google Home just above the outlet, with enough room for the power adapter below it and a small space to tuck in the coiled up unused portion of the Google Home power cable.
I specifically designed this to work with the popular Leviton 80401 wall plate which has a rectangular hole and importantly attaches to the electrical outlet frame with two screws. I'm not sure the 2-hole, single-screw wall plate would be strong enough to support the weight of the Google Home.
I've included the one-piece STL model as well as STL files for the 5 component pieces (top shelf surface, left and right supports, front and rear panels) with tabs and guides to make it easy to glue them together. For most home printer setups I recommend the 5-piece option as printing each piece "flat" on the print bed results in a much stronger piece. The overall print time to print all pieces "flat" is usually also much faster. Then simply glue together using cyanoacrylate cement ("super glue").
