3 Shelf Wall Mounted Unit
Build it flat on the floor, lying on its back, then lift it onto the wall. Hanging it is a two person job. The pictures look down on the unit as it lies there, top end on the left, and they loop, so watch each one through before you pick up the parts.
How it hangs. Each leg is one upright that turns back to the wall at the top and at the bottom, and each end finishes in a flat wall flange. The whole unit is built on the floor first, so every flange ends up facing the same way, then it goes onto the wall in one piece.
Leave every 5.5 cm pipe loose. The short 5.5 cm pipes pass through the shelves. Screw each one into its coupling by only a few turns, so it holds but is still loose, and never tighten it right down. Left loose, enough thread comes through the other side of the shelf for the next coupling to grab. Screwed in tight, that coupling can struggle to catch enough thread, because of the thickness of the wood or any slight movement in it.
