Pegboard Anything // Custom 3D Printed Hangers using Photogrammetry, Scanning, and Fusion 360

[@BarelyNoticeable]

Oh my GOSH you could create like mini shelves to display your old creations (especially ones you made with your 3D pen) and they'll be like living on your pegboard 😍

[@make.anything]

I have other shelves, but it would definitely be cool to have a select few showcased on the board :)

[@kobi832]

Why don't u make a trash can that can stay on the pegboard. So that u can throw ur trash up instead of down....?

[@Corbald]

With a target above it like the old laundry basketball hampers.

[@make.anything]

+Kobi tran sounds fun! :)

[@maxximumb]

Add in an Arduino, with 7 segment LEDs to keep score and an infra-red sensor or two that is triggered when trash breaks the beam and lands in the bin.

[@patricktwivey3489]

thats a great idife you should do that that would be super cool

[@xiaoxingchen243]

Genius 😂😂😂

[@emperoroftheuniverse6748]

You should attach a microwave to the pegboard

[@tiesvandenberg4751]

Emperor Of the Universe nice

[@unrealed]

Ooooo and a minifridge ! ooo-oo-oo and a.. a... beer coaster! Cheetos dispenser !! Toaster!!! POPCORN MACHINE!!!!

[@sarahrenz8943]

Did someone say CHEETO?

[@dakotaharris9513]

That's too much weight but funny

[@你大跌]

your dog house

[@Spaghettikid]

New series suggestion: "Peg It". Find ways of adding everything to a pegboard, useful or not. Preferably a mix of both useful or stupid things

[@make.anything]

There are already plenty of ideas!

[@maxximumb]

If you can take the peg board off the wall, you could run bare copper wires behind the holes. Alternate between 5V and ground. Then you can embed LEDs (with appropriate resistors) into your holders then use adhesive copper tape strips on the pegs. Then when you plug in the pegs in, the holders will light up.

[@maxximumb]

Or a simpler, but slightly more expensive way would be to add a 3v button cell into the back of the holder. Each holder is then independently powered. You could add a small momentary (normally open) button switch, so that when you take a tool out, the holder lights up, or reverse it by using a normally open switch, that turns the light off when you remove the tool. You just have to incorporate the button switch in such a way that the weight of the tool is enough to activate the switch.

[@soufbayshawty]

This sounds awesome!

[@Cecona]

3D printed light brights sounds so awesome! Imagine the colors and shapes you could make. Maybe even interlocking light brights

[@mhelvens]

I guess the process with the camera is a fun game, but is it practical for this? Wouldn't it have been a lot less work to design your mouse holder with calipers, some intuition and some trial-and-error?

[@TheModShopCO]

That's a lot of space. It's making my head spin how many activities you can do!

[@einsteinx2]

If you have an NVidia graphics card check out the free open source program Meshroom. It does the same thing (creates 3D models from a bunch of photos), but has no limits on the number of photos and doesn’t rely on the cloud or internet access for processing. I have a cheap GTX 1050 and it runs in a reasonable amount of time (the included example photo set took about 30 min or so to process). If you have a more powerful gaming card it should be much faster. Edit: note that Meshroom requires an NVidia card because it unfortunately uses their proprietary CUDA framework instead of something more open like OpenCL, but as mentioned it works great even on a cheap card (plenty of used 10 series cards available on eBay if you have a free a lot in your desktop system, you don’t even need to hook up a monitor you can just use it for CUDA processing)

[@robertpastorella]

Thanks for that video, learned a bunch of new stuff for Fusion 360 and how to design within the tool. Ended up watching the whole video without realizing it was 25 minutes long, well done sir…

[@ImaginationToForm]

I really like the pegs design you came up with. Takes so much less room that the bent metal rods normally used.

[@DLee1923]

Are you kidding ?? Dude, you are the guru if all things 3D !! Printing, that is ! This was really cool, practical, & just a great space saver, but MORE !! I used to think you were just a guy who was having fun 3D printing stuff. But you've actually become a cool inventor of your own cool gadgets, etc. It's like, the possibilities are endless !! Good luck with future ideas ! Look forward to seeing them ! I'm jealous of that board ! lol

[@asalottin]

Wow, just wow... Gonna grab my chin from the floor and be right back... Huge congrats man! Amazing content!

[@lukewirges1101]

Hey Devon, I really appreciate your videos. Watching you with a 3D pen made me get into 3d design. Thanks to my girlfriend I know have a 3D pen and a 3D printer. I have always been very creative but have lost a lot of drive in the past few years. Thanks to your great videos I am now learning the art of 3D design and am very excited about what a can create. Thank you for making such great content.

[@sched75]

I'm impressed by your technic to add some supports !!! This is excelllllent !!! Just what I needed.

[@albundi2985]

Never thought of how valuable a scanned model can be. Thanks for the hint.

[@arielvalle3079]

Pretty cool! I also designed and printed a lot of different pegboard hangers to organize all the tools I use at work. (Caliper, ruler, knives, tape, dremel, allen keys, etc.), I even used a very similar technique to create a few tools with a 2D scanner! Very clever process for the mouse hanger, I'm sure I'll use it for future projects! :)

[@Bostonbowser]

lmao i work in cad but the way you zoom through the process and explain it is impressive. keep up the good work

[@julesverkade7622]

How about a quick way to hang drawings? If you have a cilinder on a slope, resting against a barrier, and put the paper inbetween the cilinder and the barrier, pulling down will only push the cilinder *towards* the barrier, because of the slope. Pushing the cilinder up with a finger, however will instantly release the paper. This design already exists and is probably patented (shh), but would probably still work well with pegs, especially if you use two pegs.

[@make.anything]

+Jules Verkade cool suggestion, thanks :)

[@maxximumb]

Clip on lights, so you can put up spotlights or whatever you need for photographing prints or just task lighting that is easy to move as needed.

[@dwang085]

Man you're crazy talented. Thanks for showing the process

[@Fusion360School]

Hi Devin, really inspired by your effort. Looking to do this also. May I ask what is the diameter of the holes on your peg board? Worried about the strength of the snap hooks if they have to be small. I am assuming you are using PLA. How are the hooks holding up?

[@make.anything]

No snapped hooks yet! The holes are 1/4 inch in diameter

[@Psysium]

If you end up needing to hang stuff on another wall in your house, try a wall of French cleats! It's a slightly more aesthetically appealing, and would offer up different challenges/benefits for you. They can hang heavier things, too.

[@ch4meli0n89]

i really liked the idea of implimenting your own support material into the file... it was like a "duh, why couldn't I think of something that simple myself" moment for me... helped me a lot for the future... and about the photo generated model: try to move the mouse next time, using a turntable of some kind and keep the camera seated, where there is no light reflection occuring. I'm sorry for every gramma and spelling mistakes!

[@Perspectologist]

I think the photogrammetry works much better with non-reflective objects with more angles and or texture. RCLifeOn used Remake with a garden bust statue and got an amazingly detailed result and a very good print. Wrapping the mouse in plastic wrap and then coating it with some kind of paint or powder may have helped. This was an interesting approach and it was nice to see the modeling involved. For the mouse holder I wonder if using a profile gauge (a tool with a line of pins used to capture complex profiles, like molding) and scanner would have also worked. Maybe that wouldn't have captured enough detail precisely enough.

[@Davegbuf]

Try this tip...Rotate the object on something like a lazy Susan or a spinning stool while you take a video of it on a tripod to keep the images consistent. With many video editing or conversion applications, you can convert the video footage frames to still individual jpg image files which you can import into your 3D software.

[@jackals1737]

im really impressed and suprised cause when i clicked on this video there is 138 likes and 0 dislikes! Good Job Guys!!!!

[@johnagorman]

Great tut! Loved the supports you added.

[@st0sk1]

Excellent!

[@jonmayer]

The Fusion360 stuff went right over my head. I have to play with that software more as I haven't used it only due to the learning curve over what I've been using.

[@PrintThatThing]

AWESOME! Glad you found a great use for ReMake. Very cool tips Devin. Now I want to make a peg board :-)

[@citylockapolytechnikeyllcc7936]

on pegboard mounts, consider having a hole in center.... Once hook is in pegboard, pin is pressed in, preventing peg from falling back out. Toyota and Subaru door panel clips can offer inspiration.

[@clemariethomas3631]

Thank you so much for this video. As I type this I have custom pegboard holders printing out!! :)

[@make.anything]

+RuthMarie awesome! The more pegboards I put up the more I love em 😊

[@clemariethomas3631]

It's a healthy addiction haha.

[@Crits-Crafts]

you need a turntable for Photogrammetry :) Makes it a lot easyer than moving the camera round lol. And avoids the sunlight reflection issue

[@reggiep75]

I like the 3D printed thin moustache and beard, it's so life-like! ;-)

[@RyanHeaney42]

Great techniques, especially the flatbed scanner. Thanks!

[@ilioscio]

More pegboard videos! Also, fusion360 design process videos are my jam.

[@SmokedHam444]

Since holidays are coming up (or have started for some), it'd be really cool if you designed some travel games that fit in a small container, like an altoids tin. For example Connect Four or Battlefield.

[@Thimster]

make a pegboard for your pegboard, for the things that are just to small for the normal pegboard!

[@Thimster]

pegboard Seption

[@citylockapolytechnikeyllcc7936]

ohhhhhh I like THAT !

[@Reddle]

Very informative vid... I love all your uploads! Any chance we'll ever see some reviews on resin printers?

[@nooor25497]

wow thank you for the custom support idea in fusion. good job!

[@Beezid30]

you should try using newspaper instead of blank white paper it help me a lot

[@jarrettmosco9624]

Beezid30 That seems like a very bad idea

[@Beezid30]

no the newspaper gives the software more reference points but i used junk mail with lots of pictures

[@octimus2000]

Beezid30 I draw a bunch of x, lines and points

[@DLee1923]

Hi Devon. Just one question please ? Wouldn't there have been an easier way to do the mouse holder, or did you want to do it as methodically as you did ? I just kept thinking, " Dude, turn the mouse upside down, and measure around the middle section. Taper downward (wider on top) and of course add your cute pegs on both sides. That way the wider part of the upside down mouse would have to catch at some point close to the middle, and should hang ok." 🤔 If I'm missing something, please let me know. I'd welcome the input ! Thanks again, you're videos are cool !

[@ThePhantazmya]

I was thinking something similar. It was overly complicated. It might look pretty but if he changes his mouse he will need a new holder too. Doing the measurements would have been much simpler than doing the photogrammetry which just made the program look god awful. Then his explanation of the process was confusing but then too I'm a newbie at CAD so there's that.

[@RamjetX]

I'm learning f360 too. Wouldn't creating a sculpture and adding detail to a cube and dragging it to form the exterior of your scan. Then subtracting it from your peg mount block to make the interior skin needed?

[@fntsmn]

When you had problem with the shell, and then you decide to scale it, I suggest you instead to go in the patch environment and use the offset there, It work perfectly and then you stitch all the surface together and become a solid ;)

[@make.anything]

+Simone | FNTSMN good suggestion, thanks!

[@fntsmn]

No worry, anyway great video and I will love to have a huge Pegboard

[@alishanaiph5845]

well this is the earliest ive ever been

[@xureality]

when photogramming objects that are that dark, you might want to stick small pieces of white tape all over it, that will help with the accuracy of the resulting model because there will be more contrast which the program can use.

[@Niclord7]

Thinking about something similar but then using the lego build stucture for the plate and fixures. To make a 360° shot would it not be better to use a 3d printed turntable with angle scales?

[@spaceistheplace2293]

You should totally do the marble track on the peg board. You could even try to use one of those screw lifts to bring the marble back to the top

[@make.anything]

That would be so cool.. I might need to invest in more pegboards :O

[@Phoenix540]

For the mouse holder, with it being symmetrical would it not have been easier to just take three profile pictures and trace the profiles to make your 3D model?

[@suraj-ram7488]

I really like your videos 😀

[@Dot2TheLock]

if you dust an object with flower or another powder and close up any holes you can get better results.

[@PaulThe51]

Do you think that you could 3d print a small cruiser board?

[@justinl.3587]

When you said "More room for activities" I immediately thought of the movie Step Brothers!

[@expirednut163]

same

[@GaborGubicza]

Outstanding tutorial! Thanks for sharing. Congrats!

[@anventia]

Can't you change the default unit in Fusion? Or is it the default import scale? Because my SVGs and DXFs always import too small.

[@make.anything]

You can change it. As long as you export and import with the same units the scale should be correct

[@giheatherhobbit]

You could use just a peg, print a separate "cap" and glue magnets onto each. Then you could put the peg into the board and use the cap to hold up paper or what have you. The stronger the magnets you use the heavier the item it will hold.

[@make.anything]

+giheatherhobbit I like it!

[@rewop12]

U deserve way more subscribers

[@youli3568]

You should totally put a (custom) peg for each one of your patreons :)

[@make.anything]

I... have to do the math haha

[@mechadense]

Remake grew from 123D-catch which produced the best results I got so far. But they where run over so hard that they wheren't able to handle the load for quite a while. I seems it works again now. How long did online processing take? Would really like to see a usable non-proprietary offline alternative though.

[@make.anything]

I believe it took 10 minutes or so

[@mechadense]

Make Anything // 3D Printing Channel Thanks. Seems they got more than an order of magnitude faster. Guess its time to check it out again.

[@3D_Printing]

Cura can import image files and help create 3D prints from them

[@surrealounge]

Hey love your channel, nextime try to rotate the object (rotating base maybe?)

[@tomlomax9909]

You're a god damn magician. Did you study graphic design or something, or just figure this stuff out yourself?

[@virustheoperatingsystem4855]

I think he mentioned in another video that he's a product designer.

[@noa_1104]

Tom Didn't he study product design or something EDIT: KZbin didn't show me the other reply

[@weirdcheeto]

Luca Onorati I'm pretty sure SketchUp is for large designs, such as a home.

[@MrMrwhisker1]

Am I allowed to get Fusion360 as a student even though it's summer? I've used the free trial for a month, so it's about to expire. I'm willing to pay the $25 a month, I just don't want to spend when I don't have to.

[@nicolascilia7044]

It would be cool if you made one that could hold filament spools

[@make.anything]

I want a pegboard in my printer space, I just can't figure out where I would put it!

[@nicolascilia7044]

Make Anything // 3D Printing Channel tha would be cool

[@nicolascilia7044]

That would be so useful and awesome love the vids

[@neilsawhney7182]

Make Anything // 3D Printing Channel maybe under any tables if you have any In there? Or like on the ceiling if it's low, you'd have to design new holders that hand down but not impossible

[@dakotaharris9513]

Good idea man that's awsome

[@aalleexxxa]

[@MLEbug]

Maybe you could make little peg letters and symbols to write messages or hash tags for your audience. 😊

[@TheSqoou]

Peg board camera mounts please. Adjustable preferred.

[@edwinlevi6608]

Please make a series of videos teaching the basics in fusion 360

Do you reckon you could design and print a clip together working push along steam loco

[@Trancelebration]

You can set dimensions right in Remake/Recap.

[@jarwies]

What do you do when you get frustrated?

[@nathandrake141]

Why dont you make a design or a holder for the nano leaf aurora where the wires go throught the behind of the pegboard

[@milodelaney3954]

wow! i will use this some day

[@jellesmith]

You should do a collab with 'Draw with Jazza' he does lots of vr 3d art.

[@somedude4087]

is it 3d printed? each of pegboards

[@make.anything]

+Artem Zhuravski the pegs are printed, the board is from Lowe's

[@somedude4087]

ok then

[@coffeeoutlaws7783]

sprinkle the mouse with babypowder / baking soda/ corn starch to make it photo scan much better

[@kadebrown6162]

make the tools themselves into a marbel run,then if you forget to put the tool back the marbel will fall of ,reminding you to put the tool back.

[@campbelldaniel58]

Any chance you can share the dimensions of the peg itself? I am using Rhino and can’t edit the STL mesh. Was hoping to model it directly myself.

[@make.anything]

Search 'Just the Pegs' on MyMiniFactory. There's a fusion360 link in the description there.

[@fige0n]

if you ever had the need for another monitor, i think it would be a cool idea to have one or both mounted on the pegboard. i dont know how practical that would be depending on how low/high your desk is, or if the foot on your monitor is removeable or not, but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ it sounds fun/cool/interesting

[@TimberWood.Customs]

What slicer do you use??

[@make.anything]

mostly Cura and Simplify3D depending on the printer

[@JK_Kosta]

add a cupper strip on the back and print a led peg from that grafit filemant

Just hit the like button : 200 likes, and not any single dislike. Cool.

[@jackdalton2538]

Why do you use bot metric and imperial measurements? Please use one or the other (preferably metric (I'm British))

[@make.anything]

I usually use metric, but Fusion 360 imports in Inches by default, so I make the exception

[@everettjones1975]

Devin what 3D printer do you use?

[@make.anything]

+Everett Jones I have several by now, but these were printed on my EV160..a pretty obscure printer

[@everettjones1975]
