Hello everyone,
For all scuba technicians and responsible DIY maintenance enthusiasts, I built a 3D model of the environmental cap removal tool (AP2010).
I wanted to make the final test with my LDS technician but due to restrictions (pandemic), all shops are now closed. So I'm releasing it now for whoever has the chance in the community to give it a shot:
Apeks Environmental Cap Removal Tool

PS: If it works and you are happy with it, feel free to pay me a beer. I don't own a 3d printer and it would be nice to recover some of the money spent on tests and visits to the shop:

About the process
For those who are curious about the process, in a nutshell, I broke the process into 3 steps:
• Figure the outer rim (profile)
• Figure the top mold
• Combine both in one useful tool
After measurements and quite a few tests — ta'da — done.
Photos of tests attached
