BBS RC Center Cap Wrench

if it doesnt work you can send me the file and I can print it at work
Thanks! I wanted to give it a whirl on my machine to see if it was capable or not. I'm very impressed.
If anyone needs the 6pt wrench I originally printed, let me know. I have no need for it.

looks like it turned out pretty dang well
I still need to mess around with the settings for the supports as they are still a little difficult to remove. Better than it used to be tho. I had them under the handle portion as seen below.

What does that cost in materials?

Thats a good question. I never really pay attention to the amount of material my program estimates per print. I’ll have to remember to do that and divide the cost of a spool of filament by lengths.

Just curious if the juice was worth the squeeze for lack of a better phrase.

I just opened my print file back up. Says that it used 32.09 meters (or approximately 95 grams) of filament to print. The filament spool I am using cost me $23 for 1kg. We all know that 1kg equals 1000 grams. So dividing $23 by 1000 grams gives you 0.02 cents per gram. Multiple that by the 95 grams and it cost me $2.19 to print this wrench. I'd say this juice was worth the squeeze for sure!

If the 6 side one will fit E34/E38 center caps I'd take it
Measuring the BBS logo, its about 3-3/16" or roughly 80mm. So, if thats the same as yours it may work. You can have it and try it out if you want.
