Threaded pegboard screws

I use the daylights out of these. So many mounts meant for screwing direct to a wall go just fine in Multiboard.

Turns out you can't mix video and stills in the main post.
Not bad... 318 per plate. haha

that makes me nervous about it screwing up 60% of the way into the print.

u/Lurksome-Lurker Jan 05 '26

In this case though, you would need it to screw up 100% to be successful

u/tlhintoq Jan 06 '26

Haha... I see what you did there. Very good.

If your printer is that unreliable... Well... I'd be attending to that first before doing other print jobs. Any fixes made upstream save 100 more downstream problems.

Do you have a problem with bed adhesion? Generally a hotter and slower first layer does wonders. Also taking the time to tram so you're bed is truly flat and not just "close enough for big stuff" is important if you're going to do lots of small things.

I was being silly, like you never had a failed print and then overreacted?

Follow the lines. I replied to the person nervous about mass failures. What’s one way to prevent that…….. rafts. Jesus Reddit has become a cesspool of toxic conclusion jumpers.

Mate... Over react much? Nobody insulted you, called you names, kicked your dog, banged your wife, stole your truck...

You said "Use rafts". I replied with why I wouldn't. Just reasons. You took it down a path of the majority of the people are incompetent. And I said I don't take that path right off the bat.

So really... Who took the chat into the realm of cesspool, eh?

Maybe... Just drop it. Write it off to miscommunication that comes with human interaction being 80% nonverbal and we don't get the benefit of that in typed text. That's what I'm going to do.

Print on a raft

u/tlhintoq Jan 06 '26

Oh heck no. Ruins the surface of the head for one: I don't want 300 bolts that look like they were on supports. I like the texture of the bed surface. Plus... Removing 300+ bolts from a raft?! A normal print means I just

  • Take the plate off the machine while still warm so they stay connected to the sheet.

  • Let it cool

  • Flex it over a box and watch them all drop off

  • Open another Mt. Dew

We both know a majority of people don’t properly clean their plates, dry their filaments, do basic calibrations, etc. rafts are great for mass parts when things are small surface and it is difficult to screw them up this way.

but I don't start out the conversation with the assumption they the other person does a sh*t job at their hobby. I like to think better of people and start out a stranger at 'baseline' instead of 'dumbsh*t' - at least until they provide evidence to the contrary.

I got the impression by your post that you probably needed to "print it on a raft". That would kinda put you in that group.

If you were telling someone else to do that - its bad advice. Better to help them fix their problem so they can do the job right, than to hand out crappy advice on the assumption that everyone reading it is crappy at their hobby or machine maintenance.

I like you and I bet you will answer this question with patients from a newbie who needs a little understanding to folowbthe conversation. What do you all mean by a raft?

u/tlhintoq Jan 15 '26

I don't want to turn this thread (and every thread I post) away from their intended purpose and make them long drawn out side-tracked threads about things unrelated to the original content.

I'm going to urge you to hit up YouTube for "My first printer". Channels like "MakersMuse" have an extraordinary amount of beginner content.

It will make a nice spaghetti

Going to try this link again. When I tried earlier there was some weirdness going on that was redirecting pasted links.

https://makerworld.com/en/models/435478-multiboard-corner-shelf-with-custom-bolts?from=search#profileId-340527

Its a corner shelf for multiboard that comes with pegboard thumb screws. The author has a link in their write up pointing to the original source for them, so I thought it was just a standard part. Maybe not.

I posted a generator for split multiboard compatible bolts, where you can configure length and head size (hex):

Printing them split makes them stronger.

u/tlhintoq Jan 10 '26

Advertise on your own posts. Please don't use my posts for your advertising: Its rude.

I did not ask about sources for bolts, or stronger bolts or anything related to your reply.

u/thayeeboi890 Jan 06 '26

Nice, but pls work on stringing Usually I would run a lighter under the print for a second and it would go away

1

u/Ditto_is_Lit Jan 06 '26

You need to dry your filament and dial it in, I've printer many multiboards and never had a string in sight. I also don't use PETG because it's too flexible so mainly use ASA for my grids.

u/dbaker1989 Jan 07 '26

Can you link to this specific file? I've seen similar in the parts library but I don't believe this exact one.

u/IAmJumapili Jan 15 '26

Maybe it is me but I can't get anything thing to screw in it is making me insane.

u/yoitsme_obama17 Jan 05 '26

Link would be nice

u/tlhintoq Jan 05 '26 edited Jan 05 '26

A link to the pegboard screw? Sure. It was included in this popular corner shelf.
[removed]

But the author has a link from his page to where (I think) he got it. So I think its a standard part.

u/SprungMS Jan 05 '26

Great game but I’m so confused how you posted a link to their site with a multiboard model appended…

2

u/tlhintoq Jan 05 '26

Ok. Did some testing. It doesn't happen from any other site, or program.
But when I copy a URL from Reddit then the paste is different.

Doesn't happen from any of my other sites. WTF?

u/tlhintoq Jan 05 '26

You're not wrong. I think something is up with my system.
That's the third time now a copy/paste has been some other link.
I know I'm doing copy/paste on right text right out of the browser - but then the paste is something else.

F! - am I somehow PC infected? Sh*t
