This is a pocket screwdriver handle designed to use a standard 1/4" magnetic bit holder. I designed it in Fusion 360 to use the Harbor Freight bit holder Item 62692. It holds standard 1/4 inch screwdriver bits that are readily available at most hardware stores.
Once assembled, the screwdriver is easily carried in a pocket or purse. I have printed about 50 of these and have given the assembled screwdrivers to friends and family members.
Assembly is easy. Simply mix some five minute epoxy, apply it to the magnetic bit holder, and insert it into the handle. For best results, clamp the pieces together until the epoxy cures. To create a shiny stain resistant finish, give the screwdriver a quick bath in acetone (Only if you printed it in ABS).
The filament I use is Insight brand ABS from Microcenter. For my Wanhao Duplicator I3+,I used the following settings:
- .01 mm layer height
- 20% infill
- No raft
- no brim
- no supports
- Extruder temp. 230 degrees C.
- Bed temp. 80 degrees C.
The total print time on my printer is about an hour. Orient the handle vertically with the opening at the top.
