A small handle for inserting a hex bit driver. Having this and a number of different bits in your pocket can save carrying around many screwdrivers and Allen keys.
I printed this in PETG and have been using daily it for over a year, it has only recently stopped holding the driver in place by interference fit - it still grips enough to turn properly and remain functional however.
Print in a strong material either at 100% infill or with thick walls and high infill - the area around the hexagonal socket needs to be solid. Prints without supports standing up as per provided orientation. Use a brim if necessary, I found PETG on PEI didn't require it.
As this relies on an interference fit, I strongly suggest flipping the print upside down and lowering through the bed in your slicer to print a ~10mm high test piece of the hexagonal socket first, and then scale the model accordingly.
