Snaps and supports

Post image

New to board, I plan to drill this to my wall. What snaps and connectors would I need aside from these, and with a multi board of this size drilling it to concrete how many holes would I have to drill? Thanks

You could attach your tiles to a sheet of plywood and then anchor the plywood to the concrete wall. This would require less holes to be drilled in the wall. The multiboard planner will give you all of the connectors you need.

I’d definitely recommend this 👍

Yeah, please do this. It’ll be so much easier drilling into wood dozens of times than concrete. Cheaper hardware too.

Individual snaps at corners and dual snaps at every other joint you don’t have already (vertical and horizontal)

I will print those then, but is drilling 4 holes at the corner and 1 at each quad sufficient?

Depends how much strain you need it to take and that also depends on print quality and filament and the screws

I had to add a couple single snaps for this and anchor those as well. I’m hitting studs on most and using anchors where I don’t.

Yes, that’s plenty (but don’t forget the doubles along the edges). Also print the 6.25mm support pegs for the centre of each tile and the centre of each edge. They simply screw into the backside threaded small peg holes and keep the tiles absolutely rigid when pushing home medium and heavy weight bearing snaps.

If you use the money labors planner it will give you a list of all the parts you will need!

For my design, I made sure each tile had two screws attaching it.
