Termite Bait Station Key for Sentricon

thingiverse

I needed a tool to open up my bait stations and check them. I also needed it to be able to hook the bait stick and pull it out, so I created this. The thickness of the key is the exact thickness of the slot on the lids of the bait station, roughly 10.1mm. Version 1 of the design works great, you can use one side for torqueing the cover off, and the other for hooking. However, in practice, the cross design hurt my hand so I eliminated the top of the cross and also smoothed the top of the "T" because it would cut into the hand. I also found the hook portion was more than strong enough to twist even the dirtiest lid off when printed at 75% infill with PLA. V2 is the .stl you want you want to print, but I left V1 uploaded in case anyone liked it.
