I know i saw it here and spent the last 30 min looking for it. It was just a board with a series of holes that you drill and place your piece to be held, insert dowel and wedge to hold in place. If you know the link please let me know.
If i didn't see that here, here is what i want to do, Take a 4'x4' piece of plywood and drill holes every 1/2" to basically make a pegboard. I don't want to have to manually make 300 dots on a page for vectors by cutting and pasting because i won't get it straight. Is there a way to toolpath this to say input the deminsions of material and tell it to drill a hole every 1/2"?
I guess it might be easier to go buy a piece of pegboard huh?
