## Parametric hex bit holder
Hex bit holder for standard 6.35mm / 1/4" hex bits.
This holder can scale from a single hex bit through to as large as your machine can handle, I've rendered 100x100 in fusion 360 and took around 5 minutes on my 2013 I5 laptop.
### Side note on accuracy
When printing my machine seems to under size the holes so I printed a test with a range of holes. The hex diameter of 6.95mm fitted, but tight, so I went with 7.15mm. I've included the test print with various holes to check which size to use.
### Update: 28/06/2020
- Added a plug to block up holes so it is easier to see if a part is missing or just an odd size set that does not fill the holes according to the multiples available.
- Tweeked some values to make the unit more compact whilst still having space to pick out bits.
