I like Wera’s system for locking sockets in place, so I made a 1/2-inch version with the same satisfying “click.”

Click the cap onto the insert, place the socket on it, and turn it to lock it in place.

I made two different inserts: one for Wera sockets and one for Kraftwerk sockets, as these are the brands I was able to test. The groove inside the Kraftwerk sockets is shallower and positioned lower in the socket.

The base of the insert is a 28 × 28 mm square, so you can integrate it into one of your own designs. I will create my own base soon and upload it here.

For printing, I used PETG with a 0.15 mm layer height (Balanced),  and a 0.4 mm nozzle. It works well.

Please print the cap upside down. This gives better results for the pin in the center :) and use Supports everywhere unfortunately i couldn't come up for a solution without it...
