I'll definitely be printing some of these.

There's a set on thingiverse as well, but I have no experience with them. Just recall I saved them for when/if I get a printer.

do them out of PETG or something stronger than PLA...

I made a set and my 10mm is already chewed up :S

I have some PETG on hand now. Might do a few in PLA to see if I like them.

I've still got my original Pepers' Rocket Sockets.

I bought an original set, plastic is not for tools imo. I bought some polished deep well sockets instead.

Banged out a few sets. Went with only the ones I use regularly. They seem to work fairly well.

I went with plain-old PLA, 20% infill with an additional 2 solid layers every 10 layers (for strength).
