Connect 3 Beams with one bracket:
Plastic
Plastic bracket alternative. Use together with Screw M3x7.5.
- Faster building time. Nuts are not required.
- Many variations available for 3D printing STL files.
- Structure weights less. Similar sturdiness compared to metal brackets.

Plastic bracket TM456
• For building Totem racks -
Snap op bracket TM457
• Mount Grove, Arduino, Raspberry boards
- Plastic bracket - use for general Totem structure building and as replacement for metal brackets. Used in Totem Rack for Grove Beginner Kit.
- Snap op bracket - use for attaching Groove modules to Totem structure. Modules easily snaps on. Used in Totem Rack for Grove Modules and Arduino/Raspberry.
For more details see: Totem Groove rack instructions.
Mount brackets to the rack with M3 bolts and then conveniently snap on the Grove modules, Arduino and/or Raspberry PCBs (use M2.5x8 screw).
