⚠ DO NOT USE THIS TOOL SHORTLY AFTER USING THE STEAMER; ALWAYS LET IT COOL COMPLETELY ⚠

I had issues opening the lid of my Kaercher steamer after not using it for a couple of months. I didn't want to pry it open using a pipe wrench or similar because I feared breaking the plastic. So I designed this simple "box wrench"-like thingy to have better leverage on the cap.

I went a bit overboard by printing it in PC Blend CF with 5 perimeters and 100% infill around the connection between the handle and the ring. PETG with 3 perimeters is probably already enough depending on how stuck the screw is. Some WD40 will also help.
