I was tired of always searching for my IR gun. Made a little wall mount holster. Set it up for screw holes, as I've had poor luck trying to print pegboard compatible items.

It's a little tight on the sides for my brand (Nubee); but part of what holds it in place. I focused mostly on it being held in place by a pivoting action. Holster will hold ir gun at 30 deg angle, and the weight of the gun wanting to fall out will help hold it in.

I printed with PETG, as it's a little more flexible. PLA should work fine also.

Print with base plate down, and it should print easily with no supports.

How I Designed This

Measure, print, measure

I measured all of the curve absolute sizes (anyone with one of these guns knows there's radii everywhere). I did a rough out, and printed it 2mm tall. Then took that template and held it on my ir gun, and made modifications. Second round was functional, and that's all I needed.
