A Better Clothes-Peg

A project log for Desktop CNC Mill

A small CNC mill using a Dremel and as much stuff as possible from the local hardware store.

I use clothes-pegs for lots of things other than for drying clothes. I've been making a few of these enhanced versions from HDPE. The design and toolpath generation was done with FreeCAD v0.16.

I modified the jaws partly to increase the clamping pressure and partly because I could. The 20mm diameter hook was originally for hanging on a specific pipe but it has turned out to be a fairly useful generic size.
