Rotating Screwdriver Stand

thingiverse

I really liked the screwdriver stand by xavitury. But he must have made it for a specific set of screwdrivers. Each of the holes are different thicknesses and each of the holes are different heights. I think most screwdriver sets are all the same thickness and height, just the blades are different thicknesses. I rejiggered his design to fix this issue. Also, he omitted the 1.8mm screwdriver in favor of adding the 2.5mm. I use .5-2.0 way more than the additional 2.5mm and 3 mm that I have, so I changed the size labels. In the future I may try to design a holder with a few more holes. Straight from xavitury's description (with some modifications):This holder houses a set of 9 (0.5, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0, 1.2, 1.4, 1.6, 1.8, 2.0) screwdrivers, along with 9 spare blades. The blades are securely stored in a detachable box with a threaded cap, with one hole for each blade. You will only need a few other things to make it rotate smoothly: a very common 608ZZ ball bearing, one M8x25 hex head bolt, one M8 nyloc nut, and two M8 washers. From the bottom, insert the M8 bolt. Place a washer on the top side of the bolt. Mount the 608 bearing from the bottom of the top portion. Place the top on the base, then add the second washer and finally the nut. The top part, has a groove to put an O-Ring (~53mm diameter or so, about 1- 1.5mm thickness), to give some extra grip. Each hole has an easy to read screwdriver diameter marking, as well as a little dot to match with the screwdriver (you'll have to paint it accordingly with your tool). The base has a recess so you can glue some kind of rubbery mat. Update: I redesigned the blade holder so that the blades stick out of the holes, so you can grab them with a tweezers. As long as I was at it, I added more blade holes. ** Please LIKE ! (if you like it.)
