Are they where you are? That stinks, they are cheap here in the US, especially years ago. All the mounts are custom designed and printed by me: https://nowsci.com/pegboard/
$23 for a 1.2m by 2.4 m wooden pegboard sounds like a dream. Here, you’re looking easily at £100…
Very impressed by your 3d mounts though, I’m still in the process of setting up my Voron. I’m finally down to the electrics, and am getting some weird shorting behaviour with my z-endstop, but slowly and steadily debugging it
Loved my Voron v0.2 build, so much fun and got lucky without many problems. The display kept screwing it up, so disconnected it and it’s been happy since. Which Voron? At that price for pegboard, printing some multi board might be cheaper! I considered doing that since I have a big boy printer, too, but decided to stick with the pegboard.
Yeah I’m on a 0.2, I thought it would be easy… and here I am months later! As for pegboard, I did a bit of a shop and there are some that make it to that size and thickness at a similar price, but to collect them would be a two hour drive into a whole other city
Yea, a 3-point jig would work. I.E. make a right triangle with three holes the right distance apart.
Place it over the wood and drill through the first two holes holding it steady and square.
From there it gets easy, just put pegs in two of the holes of the jig, pushed through into the two holes you drilled in the board behind it. Now the jig doesnt move and you can drill the third hole. Rotate and spin from there to do all the rest.
The wall behind me. Chin up, no drooling.
Good crimpers and strippers are worth their weight in what you paid for them in pennies.
I’m impressed mostly by the size of that peg board. They’re surprisingly expensive…!

Are there “sheets” of anything you can get cheap? Or from sonsignment? You could make a jig and drill a bunch of holes to make one?
I could buy some ply or mdf and have a go myself, but precision drilling would be difficult

A total pain for sure, though 😀
