Pegboard tray brush holder

This grew out of the citadel paint trays ( https://www.printables.com/model/370722-citadel-paint-pegboard-holder ) that I remixed for my brother. He also needed some brush holders, so I used the same peg design and added a simple box. I don't know much about brushes but if you have similar sized brushes, this might work for you.

He filled it 1/2 way with plastic beads (from Amazon) and it holds all the brushes vertically.

I used a brim, which probably wasn't necessary, and I printed 4 at a time to get them all done. You could probably fit more on the build tray if you wanted to.

Since this uses the same peg design as the paint tray, it is expected to have a pretty snug fit into the pegboard so it doesn't move around and sits nice and tight to the board. A little finesse will go a long way here. The orientation of the layer lines will allow the pegs to snap off if you get too heavy handed.

Notes:

This basically just used 5 perimeters. Supports are required to print the pegs. This was designed for PETG so I used a .25 mm layer height.

The pegs might require some clean-up or sanding depending on how well the supports are printed in order to get an easier fit into the pegboard. This was printed in PETG so it required a light hit from a heat gun to get rid of a few strings here and there.
