Hexagon-shaped caps to make it easy to differentiate the driver sizes by color, and so they don't roll.

Hex Head Driver Caps
I just printed with PLA at 0.20 layer height, two parameters, 15% infill. Pretty much anything will do. For the caps with printing on the top I printed the insert down with auto-tree supports. I print the Blank Hex Cap with the largest part of the cap on the build plate.
NOTE: The caps are intentionally a tight fit; you may need to print them a slightly smaller (1%-2%) scale if the fit is too tight for your hex driver.
I've used these hex head drivers since 2021, but they've had two problems:
- The 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0 font is small so I often grab the wrong driver
- Since the metal handle is round, they often roll away from me
Now that I've printed each end-cap in a different color I'll just remember "I need the green one", and since the cap is hex-shaped, it no longer rolls.

Here's the brand I bought, but there are many similar elsewhere which may have the same form factor.
