A Simple Pegboard Compatible Rack for a 9-Piece Hollow Punch Set This design is specifically tailored for the 9-piece hollow punch set from Harbor Freight, item #3838. I initially intended to arrange the punches in the rack with their sharp edges facing upwards. However, upon closer inspection after printing, I noticed that some of the bottom ends had developed a slight mushrooming effect due to frequent use. This made fitting them into the rack a bit challenging. I briefly considered filing down the edges to create a tighter fit, but I realized this would only lead to further mushrooming when used again. Alternatively, making the holes larger was not an option as it would cause the punches to rattle around in the rack. Then, a rather obvious solution dawned on me - simply turn the punches upside down. Not only does this arrangement ensure a perfect fit, but it also protects the sharp tips and makes it easier to read the sizes of each punch. It's surprising how often we all have moments like these. The mounting holes in this design are aligned with standard pegboard spacing (1" on center), allowing users to easily attach peg hooks, as I did. The holes themselves are slotted for convenient screw mounting. To print this rack successfully, follow the orientation provided and avoid using any supports. A mid-range infill setting of 40% worked well for me. Due to a Thingiverse issue or possibly shadowbanning, my models no longer appear in the [Newest] listings. If you want to see more of my designs, please consider following me. Your support would also mean a lot if you decide to print this model and post a 'make' so others can find it.
