Still allows 100lb on that shelf fine.


I doubt it. You do understand levers right?

I previously gave the moment balance that clearly illustrates it can
easily support the 100 lb distributed load on a 5-1/2" wide shelf.

Show your force balance/calculation of the system that it isn't so.


You might aswell ask me to calculate if a torch could be seen from the moon.
