EDIT: The pin-hole in the cover turned out to print a little large and the cover was actually too loose on most probe pins so I have now uploaded a corrected set of files with a slightly smaller hole. Works much better this way.
________________________________________________________________________
As commonly happens, I lost one of the probe pin safety covers for the DMM probes on my AstroAl DM6000AR Digital Multimeter. The probe pins are VERY sharp and can be dangerous if left uncovered when not using them.
After trying to find replacement covers online and having very little success, I had one of those "Eureka" moments and realized that there was no reason I couldn't design and 3D print one. Once I tweaked the hole dimensions, it worked so well I thought I should make the files available to others as I'm sure I'm not the only one this has ever happened to.
I used Fusion 360 to design it and the .f3d file is included. I also included a .step file so possibly other CAD
