Knob for M10 nut by NotTheMama

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

I made 6 of these knobs to suit the bolts in a set of woodworking sash clamps that I made a few years ago. Before I made the knobs I would tighten the bolts with a large spanner, which was slow and cumbersome, and drying glue will wait for no-one.
There are a few knobs in thing-verse, some are quite nice in design, but they are all too complex for my application, and they all tightened the nut over the 3D printed plastic, which is not ideal.
This one fits snugly over a 10 mm nut and has a hole that allows the bolt to pass right through... The nut tightens directly onto the washer - So its kind of like a 10 mm socket spanner.
Anyway they work a treat so I thought I would post them.
Better printed upside down so that rafts and supports are not needed.
The dimension of the socket across the flats is 15.1 mm - you may wish to scale or edit the Sketchup model included if you need a slightly smaller or large socket.
