Description

This is for kids of any age who want their own multi tool but maybe can't have one.

  • Designed to accommodate a regular wooden pencil profile
  • Great for old stubby pencils
  • Multi tool pencils can be up to 80mm in length - you can always cut regular pencils in 2 for multi, er, multi tool pencils
  • Kids can assemble their own with the included custom flathead screwdriver!
  • Coloured pencils optional - use 6 different HB pencils if you like. Mix 'em up!

Simply insert the blunt end of a pencil, squeeze the holder gently to grip the pencil - use pliers carefully for more grip.

All items can be printed support and brim free.

Tighten the bolt so that the holders are held by friction but don't over tighten - these are just tiny 3D printed nuts and bolts after all.

I've kept tolerances tight for my set up - if you can't get the nuts and bolts to fit print at 90% flow or drop me a message.

Model shown printed in PLA on Ankermake M5.

You will need:

  • Scales (technical name for the side parts) - print one of each LHS and RHS scale
  • 2x Bolts
  • 2x Nuts
  • 6x Holders
  • 8x Washers
  • some pencils

Note 4 washers per bolt - 1 at each end to separate the holder from the scale and 2 between the holders.

Print Settings:

  • 0.4mm nozzle
  • 0.2mm layers
  • 3 outer walls (min)
  • 4 layers top/bottom
  • 10% infill
