3D model description

A pegboard mount for US power plug and power adapters that holds them horizontally with their weight on the platform as opposed to hanging off the power prongs.

I was more or less happy with the two styles of pegboard power plug or AC adapter holders for the wall mounted pegboards. However, these designs didn't work very effectively with heavier AC adapters or when using them on the pegboard in the door of my Ikea shelf.
The heavy or even lighter, not as snug fitting items would easily fall off when the door was swung closed. Also, the prongs that go into the pegboard on those designs break along layer lines when removing or pushing too hard.
I have been a big fan of the pegboard hook system that prints the pegboard hooks flat so the layer lines aren't a weak point. So I decided to build on my tape, can and caliper holder attachments for the pegboard hook system and design a parametric US power plug or power adapter holder.

To use this, you will need to print the custom US plug holder as well as the Pegboard V Multi support.
