Project instructions
Heatset Insert Press
So many of us hesitate to do projects that require heat inserts because we've never done them before or because they just seem intimidating. I designed this project hoping that it would open up the doors to using these cool little things in your own projects.
One thing I really liked was that you use the project to complete itself. The 2nd half of the project requires heat inserts, which you can use the first half to install.
I've also included the step files, so you can make improvements on the design. For example, the drawers slide all the way out, a modification to make them catch would be nice.
Project: Heat Insert Press
The heat press kit is fully 3D printed, so we've given you the following items:
- a soldering iron
- a heat insert adapter tip
- 5 heat inserts
- 5 screws

While browsing around, this little tool caught our eye and we thought that you all would really have fun with it. Since it arrived in our offices, we were surprised at the quality. It isn't the best tool out there, but as a useful fidget to carry around on your keys, its pretty fun. We hope you like it.
