Inspired (but not really using anything from) the tap handle insert this was remixed from, this approach uses friction fit tap handles that you can add a logo or words to. Included is an almost entirely constrained fusion 360 file that you can just open and change to change the words.
Improvements over the previous design:
1. Uses roughly 1/10th of the amount of filament.
2. Prints a vertical tap handle, so you can fit them side-by-side.
3. Prints without supports.
4. The tap can screw in.
I printed them in two color with a single filament change.
Its *extremely likely* that the screw will not work right for you. That's what the scad file is for. Test it out and expand/contract the screw size to fit whatever size hole your printer produces.
I also highly recommend buying a 3/8"-16 tap to cut out any drips/excess material to make threads absolutely perfect.
Buying brass inserts is fairly silly. This is not a high load application and the plastic will last near
