Puting threaded brass inserts into prints

I saw this on 3ders.org [www.3ders.org]
I thought that it was a nice clear explanation of how to put brass inserts into prints. I would add though that it is worthwhile having a long brass screw in the insert so that it can be tweaked to be upright to the print.

He probably should have given Werner Berry (Berrybot) credit for showing how to do this first.

yea this wasn't news, people have been doing this for years!

I'm very disappointed with the quality of articles on 3ders.org of late, seems they print anything without any research

Can I gently point out that I was linking to a URL that showed a technique that many people don't know about. I didn't say that it was anything new - I first used it at least 25 years ago on injection molded parts.
