Sean gives an overview to using threaded inserts for using machine screws in wood, metal, or even plastic 3D prints! For example, adding casters to your woodworking builds, or a 1/420 threaded insert in a 3Dprinted phone holder. Here's how different kinds of threaded inserts perform, and Sean's recommendations for the types to use for various materials and mediums. How have you used threaded inserts in your projects?
