Socket Retainer Kit / Socket Rail Organizer
Description
In An Effort To Teach Myself How To Model (Slightly) More Complex, And Interlocking Shapes In Sketchup; As Well As Being Disgusted With How Expensive These Stupid Things Can Cost I Decided To "Make" My Own. This Set Includes Dongles Which Should Fit 1/4", 3/8" And 1/2" Drive Sockets; Labled 25, 375 And 50 Respectiely. I Must Point Out However That My 3D Printer Is On Back-Order So They Are **Completely** Untested However I *Think* I Did The Math Right And Gave Proper Clearances. The Stl'S Load Fine In Both Cura 13.06.4 And Repetier 0.90C; As Well As A "Virtual" Print In Repetier Runs Fine. Cura Reports A Cost Of ~1Usd Per Rail Assuming A Cost Of ~30Usd/Kg Of Abs @ 75% Fill, The Dongles Being ~0.15 To 0.21Usd Depending On Which Size At The Same Fill. The Rails Have Little Nibs On Each End Stopping The "Dongles" From Sliding Off Once You Squeeze Them On; And The Dongles Themselves Have Nibs Which Should Keep Your Sockets Reasonably Secured. The Rails Measure 180Mm; Which *Should* Fit On A 150Mm (6") Print Bed If You Rotate It 45 Degrees. Also Listed Is A "One Sided" Rail, With Nibs On One End Only So You Can Glue Or Abs Fuse Two Rails Together. If Anyone Actually Prints These Off; Please Post A Comment And Picture Of How It Turned Out; I'D Really Like To Hammer Out Any Kinks Before My Printer Actually Arrives :-D
