    Abstract
    In this research project, the unique designs for 3D printed drywall anchors in this study were inspired by the skin of animals seen in nature, including reptiles, fish, and butterflies. The tough skin of these animals inspired our drywall anchor design. Engineered nylon produces drywall Anchors, one-piece, self-drilling drywall, and hollow cavity anchors. It may be installed in walls as thin as 12mm and optimized for drywall usage. You can screw with the nylon piece. A drywall sleeve anchor is an insert or sleeve made of plastic inserted into a tiny pilot hole. The sleeve enlarges as the drywall metal screw provided is threaded into it. This increases the shear strength, which helps the metal screw remain in the wall. Drywall sleeve anchors are often the sort of drywall anchor that has the lowest price point. They work well for lightweight products. The purpose of a drywall anchor is to firmly mount framed artwork, mirrors, clocks, and shelving to walls.

    Key words: Drywall, Shear testing, Tensile testing, lightweight, Carbon fibers.
