Ultra-Lightweight Naturehike Tent Peg Pusher (Only 2.5g!)
Save your hands and your shoes on your next camping trip! This is a minimalist, ultra-lightweight tent stake pusher designed specifically for backpackers, campers, and outdoor enthusiasts who count every single gram.
Weighing in at less than 2.5 grams, it takes up virtually zero space in your pack but provides a sturdy, comfortable surface to push stakes into tough ground without hurting your palms or relying on heavy mallets.
Custom Fit: This model is designed specifically to fit the distinct profile of Naturehike tent pegs, ensuring a secure, slip-free grip when pushing them into the ground.

- Perfect Naturehike Fit: Specially contoured to match Naturehike stakes perfectly, preventing slipping or wobbling under pressure.
- Ultralight Design: Weighs less than 2.5g—perfect for ultralight (UL) backpacking setups.
- Ergonomic & Safe: Protects your hands from sharp peg tops and prevents you from ruining your shoes trying to stomp stakes into the dirt.
- Super Durable: Optimized geometry engineered to withstand high pressure despite its tiny footprint.
- Fast Print: Prints in just a few minutes using minimal filament.
Recommended Print Settings
For maximum durability at such a low weight, I recommend the following settings:
| Setting | Recommended Value | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Material | PLA | Cheap and sturdy |
| Wall Loops | 4 | Adds structural strength to the outer shell where the pressure is applied. |
| Infill | 25% (Honeycomb) | Gives great multidirectional strength without adding unnecessary weight. |
| Top/Bottom Layers | 6 layers | Prevents the metal stake from punching through the top surface over time. |
Printing Tip: No supports needed! Orient the model so the widest flat surface sits directly on the build plate.
How to Use
- Place your Naturehike tent stake into the ground.
- Position the pusher over the top of the stake, making sure the peg head fits snugly into the internal slot.
- Apply steady downward pressure using the palm of your hand to drive the stake home.
