This is a knob that can hold a 1/4" hex shank, which you can use to put a 7mm socket on to install and remove nozzles!

Hi! I modeled this knob with a hollow for a ¼" hex shank - I wanted a dedicated tool to install and remove my 3d printer nozzles that would fit easily under the extruder, and also to not conduct the heat into my fingers.

Some things to note:

  1. If you just use this as-is, the heat from a nozzle will ruin it, so I used two-part epoxy to epoxy the hex-shank into the part, now it works extremely well even when the nozzle is 200C!
  2. PLA works if you do the above ^
  3. That's it!
