Back Story
My family has been in the poultry industry for over a decade. There are a few tools that are extremely helpful to have. These yellow pickup/grabber tools are a must have for the types of chickens we raise. With the frequent use, we quickly found all the weak points. These grabber tools we buy at a local supplier, but I also found them online. They are currently about $23 each.

The Need
The first thing to break is normally the handle. At $23 a pop, it was worth the time for me to design a replacement part. I designed the part about 2 years ago and have been improving on the design since then. I've got it to the point that I think they are better and stronger than the original handle (with the correct print settings, of course).

Details
Supports: Not needed or recommended.
Nozzle: I print these with a .6 nozzle, but I'm sure a .4 nozzle (or .8) would work just fine. Time should be the main difference. 
Material: I have printed this from PLA and PETG so far with great results. I'm yet to try any of the nylons, but I'm sure that would be even a better option for this high stressed part.
Layer Height: I typically print this with a .3mm layer height (with the .6 nozzle).
Perimeters/Infill: The top and bottom are the weak points, so I print the top third and bottom quarter at 100% infill. I do 15% everywhere else. I set the perimeters at 4.
Printing Temps: I use the recommended temps from the manufacture. 
Printing Orientation: The model should import in flat and in the correct orientation. 

I hope someone out there finds this useful, as I know it has saved us a lot of money over the years. I'll try to get some pictures of the handles on the tool. 

I hope you enjoy the design and God bless!
