Kincrome socket tray (13336P)

thingiverse

So my original ratchet broke in my kincrome 13336P set, through, some abuse, i picked up a cheapy to replace it, but it was slightly larger than the original, so i cut the original tray to suit, over the years, the plastic tray became brittle, and, it evenutally broke, so i had no tray and just a bunch of tools in the box. This was annoying as I could never find the correct sized socket, so i thought, i have a printer, this has been an issue for far too long...skip through days and days, and 10+ revisions, and bam, you have yourself a socket tray, yea its not perfect, as outlined below, but it does the job, and I am not wasting anymore filament on this. The filament was changed out to create the text. SO, what can you improve. The 11mm and the 7/16 could be tighter, as the wavy radius around the bottom inner edge is a bit loose. The universal socket and the 2" extension are a bit close, and a little difficult to remove, not quite sure how i'd fix that, maybe reducing the depth of the cutout so it sits higher, as they are very close and getting my average sized index finger between the 2 is a bit tight, ill see how i go in the future and may come back to it if it creates enuff headache. The ratchet cutout is a little off, we'll see how it pans out, looks to the job ok. theres a tiny gap between the frame and the tray, approx 1mm. I might make a shim, but it doesnt affect the operation, and it doesnt flop around as the outboard edges make good contact with the edges, but at the inboard is fractionally smaller for whatever reason. I was going to make a dowel to sit inside both halves so they could be glued together, but there wasnt much left over room, I might just glue them together skipping the dowel. Attached is the sketchup file, I used sketchup, which is prob why it took so many revs, really should learn solidworks, esp since i have it. JUNE 2018 update still going strong, no signs of wear, havent rectified any of the issues, seems fine! pla holding up just fine. Print Settings Printer: ctc dual converted to singe extruder Rafts: Doesn't Matter Supports: No Resolution: .3 Infill: minimum 7% Notes: 0 bottom shells needed (no need for a base as it sits in the tray and will never bee seen, just wastes filament, and since it already uses in the region of 55 grams, saving 20g by removing the base seems logical, it also reduces print considerably.) 3 top shells 3 perimeters
