Open Source Magnetic Multitool Bottle Opener Hex Key Holder Ringpull Assist Fridge Magnet

This is my 100th model on PrusaPrinters and I thought I should make it something special.

So here it is my Open Source Magnetic Multitool Bottle Opener Hex Key Holder Ringpull Assist Fridge Magnet designed around the hex key set that came with my (and presumably your) Prusa Mk3is.

It does everything the name says, but like all good multi-tools, none of them well, except for that nice little laugh you get when you pull it out of your pocket to show your friends.  (A pocket by the way, which has probably been torn to shreds by all the protruding bits of hex-key - you have been warned).

 If the keys are a bit tight - just wiggle them for a bit or in the case of the largest one screw it round and round till you get sick of it and reach for the drill - the magnets will hold them if they get a bit loose.

The magnets - three (10x1.6) do help keep the keys in place and the thing stuck on the fridge, but seriously folks, who wants hex keys stuck on their fridge? 

It was conceived as an entry in the PrusaPrinters “Bottle Opener” competition and as a small incentive to the undoubtedly incorruptible judges, if they do see fit to award me a little star, I hereby pledge to print another in Prusa Orange (which I will buy with my winnings) with a Prusa logo and maybe a little “100” badge because we cracked 100,000 and 100 uploads in more or less the same week.

It's open source too, although you need a free Onshape account to view the files and it would  be nice to see how it could evolve - could someone fit a set of golf clubs in there, for instance?

In truth, if you want an open source fridge magnet for the side of your SpaceEx rocket, you would be better off with this one.

And to keep your Prusa keys, use one of kpreid's holders - they are simple to print and just work.

I live in a country which has a well deserved reputation for the consumption of beverages which come in cans and bottles, but I have not had occasion to call on a bottle opener since about 1960.  It's hard to imagine why it's taken the rest of the world so long, but as a sop to the competition I managed to find a sauce bottle and crack it open to test the opening aspect, and it works.

A word of advice though - use someone else's hex keys - I cringe as I misuse mine in this way.  It's like opening a paint tin with a chisel.   If you are guilty of that, it's ok you can use your own hex keys.  On the other hand using someone else's won't hurt nearly as badly when you throw the thing in frustration at the neighbour's cat! 

If you have sufficient impairment to prevent you from operating a ring-pull, may I suggest that you use a specialised implement rather than this?  I did get this one to work (once) but it takes a certain amount of skill and co-ordination that are not actually necessary to simply crack the ring pull without assistance, and I had the feeling the world would be a better place if I hadn't thought of it in the first place.

There you have it, my completely honest and objective appraisal, but I'd like you to overlook all the negatives and simply like and download it - 100 downloads of my 100th upload might be nice.

Sadly I don't have that many close relatives to help me with that goal, but maybe if you have read this far, you must might!
