Ryobi Power Tool Pegboard Holder

prusaprinters

<p>Using the existing battery slots in each power tool, this print will allow you to hang your Ryobi tools on a pegboard (it fits a standard 1 inch or 25.4 mm spaced pegboard). Because the 3D printed pegs are prone to breaking, I designed it so that you can print the pegs separately if they do. There is one for "up" and "down" variations, depending on which way the battery is inserted in the tool.</p><p>I recommend printing the pegs in separately in a strong material (PETG, ABS, ASA, Nylon), then the main body should work fine in PLA. They should slide together with only small force (depending on how well tuned your printer is). If you feel like it takes too much force to slide the pegs in, just take 30 seconds and do some quick sanding on the peg piece until it slides in easier.</p><p><strong>UPDATE:</strong> I found that the slide-in pegs were a bit tough to slide in at times due to the sag of the bridging in the main body. So, I added a slight curve in the back of the peg piece to mimic the bridging sag, which allowed the pegs to slide in much more smoothly, eliminating the need for sanding to improve the fit. Changes are in the V2 3MF file.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>UPDATE 2</strong>: I just added the Fusion 360 model file so you can fiddle with them to customize or whatever! &nbsp;I am self-taught in Fusion (like most of us I'd guess), so I apologize in advance if the file is poorly organized :-)</p><h3>Print instructions</h3><p>Print as-is in the 3MF file, supports on build plate only. There's only a tiny portion at the edges that need support on the main body, so it doesn't add much time to the print at all. PLA should be fine for the main body, but a stronger material is recommended for the pegs, as well as 4+ perimeters for strength.</p>
