Expanded Socket Pal

This is an expanded version of The Socket Pal by TheTinkerGuy. The original version sizing was a little off for the socket set I owned, plus I had both a 3/8 inch drive and 1/4 drive metric socket set that I wanted to put together. This version holds 20 sockets in total (1 set of 10 sockets in 3/8" drive and a second set of 10 in 1/4" drive). I included the Fusion 360 file I used in designing the file. It does include user parameters to adjust each socket size to fit the outside diameter of your set. Socket #1 was the biggest and go down in size order from there. I also included parameters for setting the spacing of the two rows and to compensate for printing differences. While you can tweak these figures for your own, the model is not perfect linked so elements of it could break and require tweaking to work depending on what changes. Print Settings Printer Brand: Prusa Printer: Prusa Mk2 Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: 0.2mm Notes: Printed using Prusa's default 0.2mm preset in Slic3r. No supports or raft needed. When importing STL's from Fusion 360 into Slic3r, they often come scaled down. If the STL imports too small (it takes almost the entire printing width of the i3), scale by 2540%, uniformly. Post-Printing ============= Straps I designed the slots for 1/2" straps with room to spare. I used stretchy elastic band sewing material, since that was available. However this involved sewing in place by hand. If you can find 1/2" hook and loop straps, you may be better off going with that instead. Category: Hand Tools
