Wall mounted Spanner holder

Have spent more than a little time trying to produce a mount for my spanners, wanted something to grow when my collection did so had to be individual but only had a small foot print, as well as showing the size of spanner.

My first attempts revolved around a screw down the middle and no base plate and although successful reading the spanner size was not.

I have attached Fusion360 file so hopefully you can change things to suit other sizes, if not drop a line and I can make one.

the base plate is only 1.2mm thick but seems fine. The screw holes are 3.5mm. The holders are at angles of 15° to match most spanners to get them to sit flat to the wall.

if some one has a multi colour printer then the numbering can be done in a different colour, or like me you can use a maker pen. Although I do find better results with aycrilic pens when I can find them.

I only used a 15% fill and they seem sturdy enough. There is a 2mm chamfer base to cylinder and chamfers around the numbering to.

I did have one issue with the 12mm holder it seperated base to cyclinder but i think this was my heavy handed use of an oversized electric screwdriver. But if not happy you can increase the fill. Never had an issue using the old fshioned hand help screwdriver.

UPDATED 02/22: After a request for every size 4 to 26 I have added a folder, Each hook base is 38mm tall but do vary in widths. I also increased the base thickness to 1.5mm.

HOWEVER, As i did not have the spanners to measure i have added the fusion 360 file so you can change parameters as you see fit.

UPDATED 03/10/25: My smaller 8mm broke the other day. So i think i will increase fill to 30% for the replacement, the rest seem fine but possible increase in fill for all would be better.
