Customizable knob for pot lid and drawers

Designed this as knob for a pot lid, but I'm sure you can use it for a drawer and a few other things too.

Remember to block support at the top of the bolt, because we don't need support there.

You should print this in ABS or PETG, PLA won't work.

All properties of this knob is customizable.

Feature:

• Customizable bolt size.
• Create cavity to insert metal hex nut, or without if you want to thread the knob yourself.
• Create whole knob or half a knob for printing without support.
• Customizable knob styles: inward, outward or straight.
• Customizable base size and top round knob size.

The easiest version to print among my stl files is the outward_v2.stl

BTW, If you're using octoprint, add the script below to your octoprint GCODE setting and you can do advance pause similar to the functionality on Prusa firmware. You can then pause mid-print to insert the hex nut.
