Wanted to try making my own MC4 tool for work.

Tool is double sided with no tangs, because I use ziptie cut offs, at a 45*. Zipties work alot better for me even on safety mc4 connectors. V11 is printed at 6mm thick, and I'm sure going thicker might be a bit better. After making a few jumpers, the torque still feels about right.

Sorry I don't have an action shot with the tools in hand, I was at school when I made this. The NP carved into the other side is my initials.

Printed in PETG

About 8 walls and 4+ top/bottom layers,
infill 50% +
