Infrared Thermometer Gun Pegboard Mount

prusaprinters

<p>This is a pegboard mount for my infrared temperature gun.</p><p>I wanted a pegboard mount that didn't take up too much space and that looked nice, which seemed tricky for the temperature gun design, so I came up with this and am quite pleased with it.</p><p>My exact model is called the <a href="https://amzn.to/2OjCEbj">Nubee NUB8550H</a>, which doesn't look to be for sale on Amazon anymore. But seems to be a very generic model that is sold though many manufacturers using the same molds, for instance <a href="https://amzn.to/3sJQC5g">this one</a> or <a href="https://amzn.to/3rdI9qJ">this one</a>. See the identical plastic markings, like the forward arrows on the side.</p><p>I made the model in Fusion 360 by tracing some photos and taking some measurements with my digital calipers. You can <a href="https://a360.co/2OhEdXy">download the Fusion 360 file here</a>.</p><p>The pegboard attachment mechanism is printed separately and can be glued together with CA glue. My first try on that part was not a perfect fit, but I made some adjustments and re-printed, and didn't glue them together until I was happy with the fit. I found that printing that vertically, with the pegboard pins coming up made for a stronger attachment to the pegboard, and I can pull the gun out of the holder without the holder coming off the pegboard, which I initially couldn't do and had to hold it in as I removed the thermometer.</p><p>You can see how it fits here:</p><figure class="media"><oembed url="https://youtu.be/dnUPO2UORB0"></oembed></figure><p> </p><p>These parts are printed with <a href="https://shop.prusa3d.com/en/prusament/711-prusament-pla-prusa-galaxy-black-1kg.html">Prusament Galaxy Black PLA</a>.</p><p>Here is my <a href="https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/58872-anemometer-pegboard-mount">Anemometer Mount</a> too.</p><p>The peg design is from <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-eGW-VmvHYE">Make Anything, as shown in this video</a>.</p>
