After seeing the post from prossbow on not using a broadhead wrench I decided to take a look around the online 3D cad repository of thingiverse.com and came across the following broadhead wrench model. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2391146
Here is the finished part on my Voron 3D printer that I finished building a few weeks ago.
Here is the end view of the printed wrench, it works great on the couple of fixed blade broadheads that I tried it on.
Much nicer than having to worry about having it come loose all at once and slicing open part of your hand.

Wow your awsome ....your really way more advanced than most of us l use a wash rag lol.what material is it made of ?
Vixen 2, metal ibex,Phoenix,sapphire,matrix 330 ,matrix 355 ,vortex and baby grand piano y25 relayer.
Trigger tecs,leupold crossbones and nikon bolts.
Zombie slayers and mostly swat broadheads.
Hey what are you doing with a canadian loonie? Arn't you from Michigan?
Hahahaha you know our money ain't worth much against the us dollar.
Oh, pretty cool with the 3d printer.
Good eye on that being a loonie, got that the last time I made it up for Boofest and was able to get it back across the border into Michigan. The material for this print was PLA plastic. This is what I usually use for quick testing and calibration and can also print in ABS, and PETG and do print some things in glass fiber reinforced PETG with a hardened steel nozzle. Most of the filaments without glass or carbon fibers can be printed with a standard brass nozzle. Definitely fun and useful for tinkering.

Not quite there on the homebuilt 3D printers to do metal, yet. I weighed the print and it worked out to costing around $0.16 USD as I can get a kilogram of PLA filament for $29 USD. There is a bit of additional cost for the electricity to run the machine as well although if we throw in a couple of cents for that it is still under 20 cents to print. On the plus side it is just plain fun to watch it work.

That's awesome! I love it!

You're only paranoid if everyone isn't out to get you.
Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
My enemy's friend is also my enemy.
Very cool with the 3D printing. What is the cost of something like that? You can buy different styles of broadhead wrenches from $1.99 - $3.99.
