Ah ok!

 

[Shirak]

running a quick test print today to see if I need supports. I think it will print fine without.

1" version. The quick print one with the thinner shoulders was not able to put much torque on the nut without flexing and slipping. Underside of the handle is a little rough as 30degree angle is about as steep as I could go without supports under it. It doesn't affect the handle strength. The heavy duty version is much stiffer but does extend it a bit further. Let me know what you think.

Photo in hand so you can get an idea how long the handle portion is. Kept it kinda short so it could get into tight places. The straight portion where it starts to bend up to the end of the handle is about 6.5cm.

Looks OK. I would prefer the heavy duty style. I think an angle of 15 - 20 degrees might serve us better though.
If I am seeing correctly it could be thicker to match or slightly exceed the height of the nut in the 1st picture, giving better strength to the opening. 6.5 mm is 1/4", can we do 10mm? If that is easy enough I say go for it.

Yep can do that.

OK Boss, I say go for it on all sizes.
Let me know if you need anything from me.

 

[Shirak]

10mm thick 20deg on the left and 15 on the right

 

[Shirak]

Just for reference. 15deg puts the far end of the handle 18mm off the surface

 

[Snoopy 67]

I think the 20 degree should be just fine.

 

[Beba]

I think the 20 degrees should be ok
