Description

Sometimes you just need a simple way to tighten up bolts, that won't damage anything and finger tightness is all you need. These tighteners were designed to tighten up various nuts on guitars without damaging delicate surfaces. volume and tone control pots. They aren't as strong as metal but that's not their purpose. You have the files and the Fusion 360 file to change them as you like. I printed them in PLA with 90% gyroid infill and wall thickness set to 6. They do work with less, but I wouldn't drop the holders down too much as the sockets are slip on and they need to be tight. Updated the smaller tighteners to make them easier to read. Tips are deliberately not setup, if you do wish to tip or make a contribution, please send whatever you wish to https://www.nwairambulance.org.uk/how-you-can-help/ways-to-give/donate/ Thanks Rob
