Description

A very simple tap handle for an M6 Tap (3/16" Square, 1/4" Round Shank). No tap retention method outside of friction. Print the same piece, measure it and scale the model appropriately.

Print in your choice of materials; add a surface pattern in your slicer if you prefer. Add a couple extra walls (5+); the torque of turning the tap will break out 3 walls on pla pretty easily if you are trying to tap any sort of metal. (model in pictures is 5 walled abs-gf) And if you're doing anything more than a couple holes, consider buying a proper adapter! (or if you're like me, keep a spare proper adapter socket so you can find it when it goes missing)
