How about making our own Hex Key covers?

The trick is often in cutting or drilling it cleanly and squarely without
melting or scratching it, and in polishing the edges. The nice thing about a
place like Tap Plastics is you take a template or dimensions to the store
and in a few minutes you walk out with nicely cut, polished and even drilled
materials ready to use! They'll even glue up assemblies requiring more than
one piece.

It's a great service! I'd be very surprised it was only available on the
west coast of the USA. If so, I suspect it's a business someone could do
very well with in our do-it-yourself culture.
