This is a set of holders for hexagon sockets, both 1/4" and 3/8". The shelves that hold the sockets are tilted 15 degrees for easy access. I have made the pins for the sockets round, which has the advantage that it is a little bit easier to place the sockets on the holder. and that you can turn the sockets so that the markings are visible. A couple of ratchet wrench holders are also included.
Because there are so many different socket sets, I have made holders for different combinations of sets. The table below shows the different combinations.

Installation
The sockets holder is mounted on the Skadis board using a T-nut that fits M3 screws. T-nuts provide a strong and secure hold and are easy to install and remove by using a screwdriver. The screws that will fit should be about 12 mm in length.
Place the screw in the T-nut through the holes in the sockets holder and screw it in until the T-nut is about 2-3 mm from the back of the holder, insert the T-nuts vertically through the Skadis holes, then as you tighten the screw the T-nut will turn and lock the sockets holder to the board.
You can find and download the matching T-nut here: Skadis T-nut for M3 screw.

Printing and print settings
The best way to print the sockets holder is flat on the bottom. In the model files the parts are oriented in the best direction for printing. Use PLA for printing with a layer height of 0.2mm or less and a nozzle width of 0.4mm or less. A wall thickness of at least 3 lines and an infill of 25%. There is no need for a support structure.
