Monorail Ceiling Brackets Disney Playset
Description
PDFWhen designing our basement monorail layout, I wasn't happy with the "trapeze" style ceiling mounts I've seen elsewhere. I liked the idea of a 1990's "Tomorrowland" look. I designed this ceiling mount system that accommodates both single and dual tracks.
I printed my side supports with a filament color change to highlight the details. Easy to do with Prusa slicer. I also printed a few mirror image side supports - Right click object in Prusa, select Mirror & axis.
Most of my sides, tops, and bases are pressure fitted. A few were a little loose so I used a couple drops of super glue gel hold them together.
Mounts are screwed into the ceiling with small 6 x 1 1/4" drywall screws.
Distance from ceiling to bottom of base is 8 1/4". That's just above the doorframe and bookcase woodwork in our basement.

Notes:
IIIDMax Space Gray PLA is a close match to older light gray Disney track.
Paramount 3D Game Cartridge Gray PLA is a close match to the newer 50th anniversary track.
I used a Silver Silk PLA for the side supports for a shiny aluminum look. For highlight colors, I used Mickey inspired red, yellow, & black.
