I'm the kind of person that can put something down and manage to lose it within moments. With this in mind, I set out to find a tool holder that would meet the following criteria:
- Hold ALL tools included with the printer
- Fit within the physical footprint of the printer - doesn't hang off the sides in any way
- Be easy to install and remove without additional hardware
- Not interfere with other common modifications
While I found many tool holders that met some of these criteria, nothing seemed to meet them all, so I decided to quit being lazy and make my own. While designed for a modified CR10S Pro V2, this will fit any printer that uses a 2040 extrusion horizontally, so long as you're either willing to sacrifice about 5 inches of print height (or like me, just take the tools out temporarily when printing taller objects).
ToolHolder Mk 1 - Holds the following:
- Five Allen keys
- One single-ended wrench
- One double-ended wrench
- One each Phillips and slotted screwdriver
- Spatula
- Side cutters
- USB MicroSD adapter
- Feeler gauge
- MagiGoo bottle
- Standard school glue stick
ToolHolder Mk 2 - Holds the following:
- Five Allen keys
- One single-ended wrench
- One double-ended wrench
- One each Phillips and slotted screwdriver
- Spatula
- Side cutters
- USB MicroSD adapter
- Feeler gauge
- Three MicroSD cards
- Three MicroSD card adapters
The Creality logo was sourced from this excellent STL: https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/various/creality-logo (Creator Kuba104)
Inspiration comes from FirstRidge's tool holder (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3403492). This is a nice little tool holder that fit well and printed fast. However, I wanted something that held more and wasn't confined to the corner of the printer.
