Screwdriver holder for pegboard

thingiverse

Updated 2017.7.4 to eliminate unnecessary plastic and widen screwdriver holes slightly for better accessibility. The latest photo shows several iterations have been made. A new set of screwdrivers has replaced those that were missing, leaving a surplus of holders. This was the first in a series: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2418948 A screwdriver holder for pegboard is being designed with common drywall screws and pegboards in mind. Pictures show one and two holders mounted on my pegboard. Unfortunately, most of my screwdrivers have gone missing, as the picture shows only those I could find in my toolboxes. A new set has been ordered. Goals: * Use standard pegboards with 1/4 inch holes spaced 1 inch apart. * Accommodate common drywall screws (or any "wood" screw with a 4mm outside diameter). * Avoid damaging the pegboard. * Make anchors somewhat reusable. * Create a very solid mount using the screw and anchor together. * Allow for varying alignment by 1/2 grid space horizontally, thus four holes in the holder. * Keep it easy to clean (no complex exposed surfaces). * Make it extremely solid! Note that the print shown was designed to be fast, not visually appealing. It was printed with 0.3mm layers at 150mm/s, the upper limit for my printer. Printed with 20% infill, the object is almost 80% air. The result meets my needs. There are four screw-holes in the holder, but you will only use two. Which two depends on the horizontal placement desired. Currently using 1.5 inch coarse thread drywall screws (as I had a box of screws). This is not a precise requirement. The screw should be long enough to pass through the part and into the anchor. A longer screw can be used if there is clearance behind the pegboard. Finer threads are no problem, as long as you do not over-tighten the screws. It's easy to drive with a simple manual screwdriver, but it's very easy to over-tighten with a power tool. The most challenging part of this design was the anchors, and I am satisfied with the result.
