Introducing Final PEG

Boost Me (for free)

Fusion 360 File Now Available! Create your own custom sized Final PEG.

The Final PEG Laser Peg System is the ultimate accessory for enhancing precision in your laser engraving and cutting projects. Designed exclusively for MakerWorld, this versatile kit—now including the Fusion 360 file—works seamlessly with all honeycomb trays. The included Fusion 360 file allows you to easily customize peg sizes to perfectly suit your needs, ensuring optimal results even if the included sizes aren’t an exact match. Experience unmatched flexibility and functionality to elevate your projects to the next level.

 

Key Features

  • Enhanced Material Surface Quality: Elevates materials 5mm off the honeycomb tray to reduce or eliminate flashback, significantly improving the finish of your project’s bottom surface.
  • Alignment Assistance: While not a substitute for a machined laser jig table, it improves datum repeatability, aiding in better product alignment.
  • Quick Adjustable Placement: The Final PEG Rail enables fast, adjustable positioning within your laser bed, allowing on-the-fly material raising for objects of varying sizes.

 

Versatile Use Cases

  • The Final PEG Sled doubles as a standalone material hold-down or riser.
  • Additional Final PEG components can be 3D printed for use as standalone risers, offering greater flexibility.

Instructions

The Final PEG Laser Peg System delivers precision and flexibility for laser cutting and engraving setups. To ensure the best fit for your machine, this file includes a Peg Size Test that must be printed first to determine the appropriate plate for your use.


How to Use the Files

  1. Start with Plate 1 (Peg Size Test): This plate contains test pegs in 10mm, 9mm, 8mm, and 7mm sizes. Each peg is labeled with its size on the bottom for easy identification.
  2. Test for Fit: Print the test pegs and use them to determine the best size for your laser bed or specific application.
  3. Select and Print the Correct Plate: Once you’ve identified your ideal peg size, print the corresponding plate:
    • Plate 2: 10mm Final PEG
    • Plate 3: 9mm Final PEG
    • Plate 4: 8mm Final PEG
    • Plate 5: 7mm Final PEG

What’s Included

  • Plate 1: Peg Size Test (10mm, 9mm, 8mm, 7mm)
  • Individual plates for Final PEG Laser Pegs in 10mm, 9mm, 8mm, and 7mm sizes

Assembly

The snap-fit design is engineered to provide a secure connection, ensuring the peg remains firmly attached to the sled or rail. For assembly:

  1. Place the peg (flat side down) on a flat, smooth surface.
  2. Press the rail or sled onto the peg until it clicks into place.
  3. Alternatively, fit a 12mm deep socket over the peg shaft and press down firmly for a secure attachment.

How Do I Customize My Own Final PEG in Fusion 360?

You can now create a custom Final PEG to match the exact dimensions of your honeycomb tray! Need a taller one, a shorter one, or a slightly larger hole size? No problem—I’ve designed an easy-to-use Fusion 360 file that makes customizing your Final PEG simple and efficient. Best of all, since the rail, sled, and other components in this system use a standard snap-fit design integrated into the PEG, you won’t need to reprint those parts to fit your custom PEG. How cool is that?

 

Where to Start?

Start by printing the Test PEGs to see if a standard size fits your honeycomb without customization. If none of the standard sizes work, you can jump right in by downloading Autodesk Fusion 360 for personal use—it’s free!

 

Steps to Customize Your Final PEG in Fusion 360

  1. Download Fusion 360: Install Fusion 360 and create an Autodesk account.
  2. Download the Final PEG File:
    • Hover your mouse cursor over Download or Print.
    • Select Download STL to access the file.
  3. Open the Fusion 360 File:
    • Open the file in Fusion 360.
    • Navigate to Modify > Change Parameters.
  4. Adjust Parameters:
    • Honeycomb_Size: Set this to match the hole size in your honeycomb tray. Adding +0.4mm to the measured size improves the PEG's secure fit.
    • PEG_Height: Set the desired height for the shaft (not the entire PEG). No additional adjustments are needed for PEG_Height beyond your desired length.
  5. Export the Custom PEG:
    • Go to Export > Name the File.
    • Choose your preferred format (STL or STEP) and export the file.
  6. Prepare for 3D Printing:
    • Open the file in Bambu Studio.
    • Click Auto Orient to ensure the peg is positioned correctly for printing.
    • Right-click on the model and select Clone to print multiple copies as needed.

More to Come!

Stay tuned—additional adapters and extensions for the Final PEG are in development to further expand its functionality and versatility.

Thanks a lot for sharing your design. Turned out nicely, only about 6mm too long for my honeycomb. I will sand them down to the right height.

Hi thank you for your information, this helps further design the PEGs. 1.) What brand of honeycomb are you using? 2.) What PEG size did you print? I have another user requesting for 3mm shorter. Regardless I agree, a shorter PEG shaft might be a good idea.

I printed out the 7mm version. According to the label on the honeycomb the model name is HLSB01. I bought on EBay Germany from this dealer: https://www.ebay.de/itm/404491319187?var=674461305557 Thanks again for the design and how much effort you put in it with the test Pegs and the various plate setups.

I appreciation the kind words. I’m considering uploading a Final PEG (PEG Only) Fusion360 file for anyone to create their own PEG. You’d input [Honeycomb_Size] and/or [PEG_Height], and it would generate a custom version for your needs. Since Sleds, Rails, and future designs use the "Snap-In" PEG, reprinting Rails or Sleds wouldn’t be necessary after customizing the PEG. Thank you again for your feedback! I hope to upload soon.

Thank you for your feedback and for testing the design. This feedback is valuable for learning and improving the design. I did not mention in the design that each PEG is actually 0.4 larger at the base with a -1.0mm taper at the end. Therefore, the 8mm PEG is 8.4mm and the 9mm PEG is 9.4mm. The reasoning for this is that it helps secure the peg as it becomes inserted into the honeycomb. This would also mean that the tip of the PEG would be 7.4mm and 8.4mm. I hope this clarification is helpful. I have considered shortening the PEGs, and I find that idea appealing. I will also take this into consideration. I appreciate you taking the time to comment.

Hi, I have overhauled the page with new information and with the help of your need for shorter PEGs now offer a super easy to use Fusion 360 file to create your own size. Because the snap fit part of the peg is standard there is no need to reprint the sled or rails again. Just print your custom sized pegs and snap em in! thank you again for your feedback.

Thanks for the review, glad I included a Fusion 360 file for you to modify it for it to work with your laser. Now you have your own re-printable Final PEG for the extras that are in development.
