About this 3D model

Fits to the back of Better Home & Garden 10.5gal trash cans from Walmart. Before this, they would slide around and the back and lids would hit and mark up my wall. These spacers keep the cans together and far enough from the wall and counter that they no longer hit. I made the design modular so hopefully, people can find other uses for it. The pieces fit together with dovetails. I found the shrinkage of PLA provides enough tolerance for the parts to fit snugly while being able to be removed easily. I uploaded all the STLs so you can change the dimensions for other applications. The short wall spacer keeps them 110mm away from the wall. The long wall spacer keeps them 145mm away from the counter in my case. This is my first designed part, so feedback is much appreciated. Let me know if you end up printing these or adapting them for any other purpose. Thank you!
