Description
Shutoff valve known to work for all of the shutoff valves I have seen in Western Australia and possibly further! The shutoff valves from the water corp are for some unknown reason an odd shape (so nothing fits on em) and also ever so slightly hard enough to turn that my wife struggles to turn it on or off, of which when you have an underground leak and a plumber who isn't free all week you may find your wife needing this ability while your not home.
Hope this helps somebody!
There are two versions of the tap head in the model, one with a key to ensure proper alignment of the symbols I placed to assist in correctly lining up the tool on the non symmetrical head and a version without the key so that if your in an awkward spot you can rotate the handle to a more convenient location.
If you are slicing this yourself you will want to use 4-6 walls for the bit (6 probably) if your using PLA and about 35% infill for added strength (I used gyroid, but any horizontally strong infil like Rectilinear would work fine. For the handle you can get away with 2-3 walls and 18% infill pretty easily.
When using the wrench on your shut off valve don't forget that the handle is giving you a fair bit of leverage so don't go hulk hogan on it and break your valve. Line up the off on points with the markings on the handle and rotate followign the arrows.
If you have a slightly different valve or some other thing you need to wrench off you can make a bit for this handle by making your outer shape a hexagon that is 70.4mm wide (flat to flat) and 15mm high (the key if you want to use one is 5x5mm centered) or better yet just modify a copy of the cad file: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/f74114fa9dc2d47d2b31d1e0/w/b3c6c922c486bdbc6f09705a/e/d414cd94457d5b4c77ad874c?renderMode=0&uiState=69de6c0417abfbaa428d6d59
