Torque Bit Holder

March 21, 2020
Welcome to a strange new world. Great time to 3D print!

I have been busy on a few other projects but I am still working on this in the background. Jumped to current V16.

I have been playing with the hexagon size in order to find the best mix of print quality vs.ease of withdrawal of the bit.

Hexagon dimensions for each version:
V14 = wall length:3.82, wall to wall distance: 6.616
V15 = wall length:3.88, wall to wall distance: 3.85
V16 = wall length:3.85, wall to wall distance: 6.72

I personally like to print face down so the front text comes out as clean as possible but that will affect the the hexagon opening for the bit. I'm trying to find a middle ground on hexagon size so it prints well on my MP Selct Mini V2. Other versions may work better on your printer.

The neodynium magets I bought from https://www.kjmagnetics.com/ are a perfect fit.

Also worked out the cost of the project:
PLA cost: 8.92 grams @ $22.99 per 1kg = 20.5 cents
