Modular Leatherman Wave Alpha Sheath/Holster

https://youtu.be/dCaOUq-Jcek

This is a fully modular Leatherman Wave Alpha holster system. the sides of the holster are modular and I have included a blank design as well as the attachment geometry dimensions for designing your own side parts. The Belt attachment is also modular and can be a clip or a loop currently in vertical or horizontal, or 3d party clip.

There are quite a few side attachments available now, and all future additions will be included with this original purchase with additional options either being added here: https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/tool/modular-leatherman-sheath-side-attahcments-22mm
I also welcome others to release their own designs as well.

Main holster options with various tolerances for the attachable parts:
Alpha_v1_0.2Tol.stl
Alpha_v1_0.3Tol.stl
Alpha_v1_0.4Tol.stl

Side Attachment Geometry to aid in making your own attachments (please share!!):

Side Attachment Options (More Coming!):
The side attachments compatible with this sheath are found free here:

Here are some of the current options:
BitHolderHolder.stl For Bit holder that fits on the P2 and P4 as well as the pry/large flat head of the Arc that is commonly found on amazon.
BitExtensionHolder.stl Holds bit extender plus 2x leatherman bits (tested only with the Galvanox option from Amazon)
TS10Mount_arc.stl For Wurrkos TS10 Flashlight
LeathermanBitHolder_4x.stl 4x bit holder that also has slots for Swiss Arm Knife tweezers and toothpick

Belt Loop/Clip options:
BeltLoop.stl
BeltClip.stl
HorizontalBeltLoop.stl
HorizontalBeltClip.stl

Tolerance Test parts:
TolTest_Side_0.2.stl
TolTest_Side_0.3.stl
TolTest_Side_0.4.stl
Print with a side attachment and find which works best for your print settings (Bigger will be easier to assemble).

FDM Printing

All supports are included in the parts so no supports are necessary (unless you print the parts labeled no supports), but you will need to clean up the parts after printing them as shown in the picture.

The modular attachment is very tolerance sensitive, so a few different tolerances of the holster (sides and loops remain the same) have been included. Tolerance checking parts are also included, so print the different sizes and test the fit to find the one that slides on best for you. Pressure advance tuning can really help with the assembly so if you are having issues, please tune pressure advance. extrusion % multiplier is also very important to dial in, and likely may need to be lower for parts to come out at the right size.

Filament choice is important to get a durable and functional holster that will last a while. PLA is very strong and PLA + is an even better option, but PLA does suffer from some creep so you may find that the parts, snap fit, and retention loosen over time. ASA or ABS are not as strong but will not suffer from the creep issues. PLA + does work great though so I would not shy away if that is what you prefer printing.

The main holster prints at an angle to prevent layer lines from weakening it at the belt clip attachment point. Supports are included in the part so orient the part so the brims are flat on the print bed like shown in the picture.

The side pieces print vertically and generally are easy to print and currently none need supports.
The belt clip/loop print on its side to increase strength, and included supports from the attachment geometry are modeled in and will need removed post print.
