reddit.comFinal design after a lot of trial and error. These are are super tough with the way he’s printing them, and so much better than the belt clip placement from the factory.
And something I didn’t think of when he states working on this project for me. It gives all sorts of tools that didn’t have a way to hang off a set of bags or a ladder the ability to do so now. Putting my multi tool, hacksall or cut out tool off my bags is great.

Im interested. Let me know how I can get some

Do you have the stl?

No, my 15 year old son designed these from the ground up for me. He put a lot of work into them and he’s been selling them, the Milwaukee reps locally love them and have been putting out the word for me.
I had posted pics on an old account months ago, but they were rougher then and he’s polished then a lot as well as changed your print orientation and such for strength.

I don't see them on ebay. Where does he sell them?
2
We’ve been selling them locally, I posted pics of his progress months ago on another account. Lots of buzz here and people seemed interested. So I thought I’d post pics of his final product.
I could make a listing on eBay if there’s enough buzz here for it.

What about the price?
2
Please post the eBay link when you get it setup! Keen as on these

eBay, Etsy (already had a huge red mod market though) Shopify.... Online game is the way to go.
If you do go online, get invested in stamps.com and a dymo 4xl. Will make shipping a cakewalk.

I'm interested. Alternatively, he could sell the 3D Printer files. I'd buy those.

Is this hanger glued to the battery?
1
Nope, sits on top. Snaps on securely and they easily remove. The shoulders on the side keep it from moving at all once it’s on.
2
Very Cool. Yeah if he puts them on eBay his printer won't be shut off for a long time. I'd buy a couple if the price is right.

Yea I'm in the UK and I'd probably pay the shipping to get at least 5 of these. One thing I'd ask, primarily for the m12 sds, this clip would make the drill hang awkwardly, could the design for it be rotated 90⁰ on the clip?
2
We could rotate it for something else if need be.
Personally I don’t have the m12 sds, so I haven’t tried the clips on that m12 tool. But I could probably holler at one of the reps and see what they think about it and if they have a sds they could try it on.

Essentially if you put it on, the drill would hand completely upside down on your belt, when really you'd want it to hand drill bit down, handle up ready for your hand Still interested in the current clips for my own multi tool cutoff wheel and angle drill

Thanks! He’s really excited to see someThing he’s interested in make him a buck.
He’s already talking about buying another printer with the profit lol kids a true entrepreneur

I’ll take 3 !!! Message me please
1
Will do! I’m gonna help him create an eBay and a PayPal because this is all him, it was just my idea.
This will give him a good idea of how the world works lol

We haven't heard anything about the pricing.
1
Well i don’t wanna break any rules here, but we’ve sold them locally 3 for $20 and sold many many dozens so far.
2
Reasonable price
1
I'll add to the request to put this on eBay, I'd definitely purchase a lot of them for myself and the other crews I work with daily.

Thank you, just ordered 2 sets from your link. Will review for you after I and my coworkers have abused them for a bit.
1
Lol cool, he’s pretty excited. Me and my guys have been using them for a while and I gave away some free ones that were not as polished as these. They all seem to be holding up pretty well.
Hope you like them
2
Add me to the list for price and availability, please and thank you.

I like the concept for hanging tools, but remember that some of those tools could cause a lot of damage if they cut on while dangling from your belt. Better safe than sorry.
1
I think that’s where it kinda falls into the hands of the consumer if what tool do you think I should put this on and which one you shouldn’t.

Message me. I would love to purchase a bunch.

Won't this put all the weight on the M12 battery clips?
I haven't had any problems with mine, but I've heard several people complain of the clips breaking or the battery being able to fall out on its own.
Been using them for months and months, no issues.
Never had any issue with my m12 batteries before or since these clips.
I have this happen with my m12 stuff.
I tend to be hard on my tools. Dropping them, using them as a hammer, etc.
The M18 tools handle it fine. The m12 batteries break at the clips. I need to baby them to keep it from happening.
