Nut & Bolt Print-in-place

thingiverse

Remix of @aubenc's Knurled Surface nut & bolt set. I tweaked the design so that you can print the nut & bolt together, which should save some build plate space when printing multiples. Print Settings Printer Brand: MakerBot Printer: MakerBot Replicator 2 Rafts: Doesn't Matter Supports: No Resolution: .2 Infill: 5% Notes: For print orientation - the nut should be touching the build plate, and the M on the bolt should be facing upwards. The tolerance between the threads is pretty tight, so you'll need a printer that's tuned pretty well to keep it from fusing while printing. If it works, you get a really satisfying snap when you first twist the nut.
