I created a socket tool custom generator in OpenSCAD today.

From my OpenSCAD code, you can easily create:

Any socket size, metric or SAE/Imperial or custom

Any drive size (i.e. 1/2", 3/8", 1/4" or custom)

Any minimum wall thickness

Any tolerance

6-point or 12-point

Use OpenSCAD software to change parameters, render, and generate the desired custom socket stl file. I posted the STL for a 10mm socket using the default script settings.

This is the beginning of something great! Enjoy!

Why print calibration cubes when you can print a socket instead! Now where did I put that 10mm socket?... Ah, doesn't matter... I'll go print another...

Update 05/04/2021:

Socket_Generator_V2.scad: Added option to create a 12-point socket
