Wall Card Link System
Modular hexagonal links to show cards, photos and tiles on the wall. A wall base (screw or adhesive strip), links with a card slot leaning back 10 degrees, and an end cap. The links drop into each other from above on a hexagonal rail with a light click. The slot runs on from link to link, so a postcard can span two links. 1.2 mm slot for cards and photos, 4.2 mm for tiles, plus a double link. Support-free.

About this design
The Wall Card Link System is LayerKit's own system for displaying cards, photos and tiles on the wall. You mount a wall base and drop hexagonal links onto it from above, on a hexagonal rail with a light click. Each link has a card slot leaning back 10 degrees. The slot runs on from link to link, so a postcard can span two links.
- Link: 50 mm pitch, 20 mm deep, 40 mm tall
- 1.2 mm slot for cards and photos, or 4.2 mm for tiles, 12 mm deep
- 50 × 24.2 × 48 mm double link, wall base and end cap
- Mount with a 4 mm screw or an adhesive strip of about 20 × 40 mm
- Prints without supports, digitally checked for printability
Print tips: print all parts upright, as supplied. 0.2 mm layers, 3 walls, 20% infill, PLA or PETG. For more than four links, add an adhesive strip behind the last one. If it is too tight, set horizontal expansion to -0.05 mm or sand the rail lightly.
You get five STL files and one 3MF.

Designer's tip
Print all parts upright, as oriented in the files. Mounting: fix the wall base with a 4 mm screw or an adhesive strip of about 20 x 40 mm on the flat back. Drop the first link onto the rail from above until it clicks, then the next one, and finish with the end cap. For more than 4 links, add an adhesive strip behind the last link. Too tight: set horizontal expansion to -0.05 mm or sand the rail lightly.
Frequently asked questions
How do I mount the links?

What fits in the slot?
Cards and photos fit the 1.2 mm slot, tiles the 4.2 mm slot. They sit 12 mm deep and lean back 10 degrees.
