This hex cap with wings allows more torque than just a knurled knob. The opening fits a standard M8 bolt with hex head.

I needed this to hand-tighten a hold down bolt for a spare tire. I needed to be able to tighten it pretty snugly. To create this, I imported Juradoox's knurled knob STL into OpenScad and added two wings to allow for more torque.

This is printed in PLA with a 0.6mm nozzle, 0.2mm layer height, no supports, and ironing on top surfaces. It took 29 minutes.
