WVU Beer Keg Tap Handle, two tone, custom

thingiverse

Big thanks to the OP matt for the logo, I lopped off the keychain ring to make the topper. This is a totally customizable tap handle, throw it into tinkercad and add your own initials or WVU. Make sure the letters you add end up at 20 mm tall. If you want to print this as a two tone do the filament change at a 10mm layer height. The wider bottom sections are exactly 10mm tall. I printed this at 45% infill mostly to give it some heft. I have printed these with both with and without support for the void where the rivet nut goes. It doesnt need it if your temps are dialed in well. The 3/8-16 rivet nuts that are pictured can be had on amazon or most big box hardware stores.. They fit the threads on most North American tap handles. A couple drops of super glue keeps everything together. Do your self the favor and learn from my mistake, after printing your tap handle, screw the rivet nut on you tap then add the super glue then put your printed handle on over the nut so its square to the front of the kegerator when fully screwed down.
