Two legs at a right angle, each with a screw hole in its middle, and an optional pair of gussets along the outer edges that keep the angle from opening under load. Use it to join two boards, fix a panel to a shelf or square up a frame.

The legs can differ in length, for a bracket that sits under a shelf and reaches higher up the wall. Make the hole 0.3 to 0.5 mm larger than the screw so it passes freely. A thickness of 4 mm suits wood screws of 4 mm; go thicker for loads that pull on the bracket rather than press.

Print it standing as shown, with the gussets in place; the holes in the upright leg are horizontal and small enough to print without supports. Four walls make the corner the strongest part.
