learned a new use for an old word
was looking all over for the shelf brackets that use small clips
you squeeze the clip and it fits in to the bracket there are 4 brackets for each shelving unit the shelf ends rest on two clips so there are 4 clips per shelf the brackets are called pilasters well i always thought pilasters were an ornamental detail that looked like vertical supports also the pilaster clips come with nails but i am going to use small #6 screws instead |

There is a bracket than can be squeezed an inserted to fit on a drawer slide, and they're advertised as "pilaster brackets".
