IKEA Markus is a great office chair with decent part quality and very long warranty for an attractive price. However, there is one design flaw – the original armrests cannot be adjusted in any way and will most likely hit your desk. If you want to work without heavy original armrests, but still need to grab a chair from time to time or level it under yourself during the work, I have prepared an easily printable alternative. Just print it twice and use the original screws.

Rafts: No

Supports: No

Resolution: 0.2mm

Notes:

• Use high quality PLA or stronger material (from CPE+ to composites) depending on how you plan to handle the chair.

• 0.2mm layers are OK here, but use more surface walls (like 5) and more dense infill (cubic, gyroid etc.) near the mounting holes. See the picture of sliced part.

NO SUPPORTS are needed as the only supported areas are already solved in the model thanks to single-layer bridging. (But DO NOT rotate the model on the buildplate upside down. ;-) ) Remove the thin bridging in the holes with knife easily before mounting phase.

• Use some matching (or contrast) colour. Very nice is Vertigo Grey or any anthracite shade.
