Nuts are just an example. Heat inserting after printing will leave the the nut visible from the outside which is precisely what I want to avoid. I thought that people would use a sort of "lift and hop" function for the head to to avoid inserts' protruding areas.Quote

As for nuts, depending on the final design, I find it is better to heat up a soldering iron to melt the nut into the cavity provided for it then to mess with pausing the mid print and hoping everything fits.

That method wont work if you're trying to embed a hex nut perpendicular to the bed, since the top gets narrower.
