3D model description

This was designed to organize the set of Allen Keys that commonly come with 3D Printers.

The hole sizing was measured from the set that come with the Creality Ender 5 Plus which tends to have fractionally smaller dimensions than some others from hardware stores. To accommodate different manufacturing tolerances and/or personal preferences for fit, three different hole clearance fits are provided: Snug, Loose, Very Loose.

The snug option can be loosed/worn out to any desired fit if necessary as it should be the minimum end of the fit range.

The holder mount has 5 holes, recommending use only 2, but you have varying distances to match different rails. Each hole is spaced 10mm apart.

For mounting to a standard 2020 extrusion, I used M3 x 8mm screws, but I believe M3 x 6mm would work as well.

This model is 100% free. If you would like to support me, please consider buying one of my paid models.
