Fully assembled 3D printable wrench

pinshape

After watching the infamous video from a few years back where Z-Corp printed a fully working wrench, I decided I wanted to do the same thing on my own printer. Now, I am not talking about a "print-several-pieces-and-then-assemble" version which there are already a ton of on the internet. What I wanted to do was something I could print and that would actually be fully working straight out of the printer. I like to think I came pretty close. All you need to do is remove the internal support and you're done! Keep in mind this is a proof of concept, I just wanted to see if I could do it. Updated 2013-10-16: I added "Printable Wrench With Longer Screw" which has a longer screw (3mm). Updated 2013-08-30: I have added two new files. One with a slightly bigger gap between moving parts, this one has a 0.55mm gap instead of 0.35mm. Let me know if it works out (in particular with PLA). I also added a STEP file with no support for anyone who might want it.
