Boosting this design would really make my day!
Tap spanner for 11mm nuts that secure a tap to a typical UK sink with an M8 bolt.
There's a 4mm hole at the bottom of the model where you can put a hex key through to give you more leverage.
I've used this myself printed in PLA and it was able to screw the bolt to fix the tap in place without issues.. your mileage may vary, but it's worth a go if you need one and don't have the right tool for the job.
There are 2 profiles you can choose from; the standard version, and a light version where I've thinned the walls of the handle to save a bit of filament & print time. The light version may not be quite as strong at the standard, but I had no issues with it.
Both profiles are around 92mm in length, which is shorter than my 12mm version (listed separately) since I found the shorter length was fine when working with flexible tails of most modern taps (as opposed to copper pipe tails).
