Made this simple cap to transform a basic hex bolt into a low profile thumb screw for an assembly I was designing. Much more aethetically appealing and colour matched, its one of the little things that make the design look really clean and can be applied to tons of projects, so decided to share it by itself. See the last photo for a sneak peak of the full assembly!(Hint: check out the logo) The posted design is for either and M7 or 1/4" hex bolt (11mm wide hex). I've secured mine with a bit of super glue, but it could be scaled down or up to be press fit. Also could play around with scaling to get it to fit different bolt sizes.
