I wanted to share my design to easily convert a honeycomb style bed into one with very configurable pin supports.

Simply print the attached part and press in a 1/16" x 1" dowel pin (with a little scaling or drilling, a 1.5mm pin should work, as well). Note that the part was created in imperial units so you may need to scale by 2540% in your slicer to arrive at the correct part size.

I like it- are you sure your honeycomb is level, mine was not.

Yeah, I had the same issue. Mine was out by about 2mm L <--> R and 1mm F <--> B. Shimmed up the edges and everything is great!

I'm wondering if 1/4" pop rivets stuck in the honeycomb would work?
