anThe whole miniproject started with a rather annoying shoeholder I have in my home.

The whole bracket depends on one screw to keep it from spinning around. That screw is on the same axis at it would spin. That means it regularly dumps a load of shoes on the floor. Not convenient. Here is a closeup of this stupid bracket.

My plan is to scratch the whole bracket and mounting point and 3d print my own. My design incorporates a locking rosette and m5 screws with locknuts to keep the thing together.

Next step is to print it out and see if it actually works. Wish me luck!
