M5 SHCS Knob

This is a simple, quick to print knob to press on to the head of a M5 Socket Head Cap Screw (SHCS).

It's intended to be a press-fit onto the screw. I used a vise to press it on to the screw immediately after printing while the part was still warm and a bit soft.

Solidworks file included for remixing.

I used PLA because it was handy. PLA tends to be brittle, but since it was still warm I could press it on without cracking the part. PETG, ABS or nylon might be best.
