Harbor Freight T-Handle Hex Keys are good, but... The trays that come with them are crappy. It's hard to get the hex back into the tray, as the bottom hole is hidden and hard to align. Good idea, but poor implementation.

Here's what I bought.

SAE Handles: https://www.harborfreight.com/sae-t-handle-hex-key-set-10-piece-62161.html

Metric Handles: https://www.harborfreight.com/metric-t-handle-hex-key-set-10-piece-62172.html

When I bought mine, each handle was a different color. Since then, they've cheaped out and made them all the same color. Only metric -vs- SAE are different. But, they've labeled the proper side so it's a bit easier, but still awkward to replace the handle.

I created a funnel block. It allows you to insert the handle much easier. And it just feels good.

I've included files for debossing the text and pre-sliced files for the Prusa MK4.

Sorry about the light grey text. :-\ NOTE TO THINGIVERSE: If anybody sees this;

  • Better, but not perfect: Please make ALL text darker. It's SO hard to see light grey on white!
  • Fixed: They alphabetized the Printer Brand list, Design Tools (and other lists) when adding a creation.
  • Be kind to the visually impaired!

Enjoy!
