Ever struggled to loosen a stubborn bolt or nut in an out-of-reach location? Or found yourself needing two wrenches to grip both sides of a bolt when all you had was one wrench for that specific nut size? A simple solution is at hand. With Instant Wingnut adapters, you can transform any standard M3 to M10 bolt or head into a wingnut, allowing you to apply force with your hands. Simply print the required wingnuts and stash them in your toolbox or leave them nearby near heating radiators, plumbing fixtures, or anywhere else you might need an easy way to loosen a bolt or nut. These versatile wingnuts were designed by me using OpenSCAD. I've included the .SCAD file for your convenience, should you need to adjust the measurements for your specific application. For optimal performance, these wingnuts work best when they fit snugly in place. **Print Settings:** * Printer: Mankati Fullscale XT/XT-Plus * Rafts: No rafts required * Supports: None needed * Resolution: 0.1-0.2 mm * Infill: Use at least 30% infill or higher **Notes:** When printed in PLA with three shells and a minimum of 30% infill, these Instant Wingnuts will surprise you with their surprising strength.
