very nice video!!!! and most of all useful.

[@r3dsnapper]

Nice! I love your breakdown.

[@argophontes]

There's a file on Printables called "Heat Set Insert Press" by Adafruit that will set you up for making sure that your inserts are reliably perpendicular to the part.

..... buttery smooth 👍👍😎👍👍

[@speezguy]

Great video. Thanks for getting the background music volume just right. Maybe you can do some tutorials on Prusa Slicer in the future?

[@ButterPockets]

Sure, anything in particular?

[@artemgoncharenko646]

So simple and efficient way to share your best practices. Great!
Are you going to build a special mechanism to insert thread more accurately?

[@ButterPockets]

So I found a nice script that creates much better threads! I was going to make a video on that at some point

[@antimeme5545]

I usually leave my printer alone when it prints, so if I add a pause and I don't notice right away would it be bad if the printed layers cool down before I resume the print?

[@davemorales1064]

Polarity is an issue had that paused work. Just by chance found this vid. Thanks.

Great video.
Have you ever used embedded hex nuts ? These would be hidden in a hexagonal pocket like the magnets but with only a through hole. I’ve seen someone use them and it seemed like a good substitute for the special inserts.

[@ButterPockets]

Yeah I have! There’s a challenge with them though in that if you truly embedded it into the part the bridge layer above it will need a circle. The way slicers work it’s going to try and print a circle into mid air. The way around that would be to leave a slot and insert them like Prusa does on their machines. I wouldn’t call it a substitute, but it can totally be a good way to attach parts together!

[@mikem05channel53]

Thx. After I asked this I found the older video where CNC Kitchen tested a few three of tons inc
Using inserts and nuts.
I think I’ll order a set of the inserts from his site.
