(REMIX) Quickly Measure & Sort M2, M3, M4, & M5 Metric Screws up to 50mm Long - uses nuts instead of inserts

thingiverse

<strong>This is a quick remix of Sneaks cool looking Metric screw measuring tool (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4056498). </strong> The only difference is that this is designed to use nuts which can be heat set into the tool, instead of inserts. Otherwise it is identical. I printed and tested this, seems to work well with the nuts. To heat set these, I screwed the nuts on the end a long bolt, and then used a jet butane lighter to heat them up, before seating them. This method has worked well in the past and is simpler (for me) than using a soldering iron, but as always use caution since it is easy to burn things or yourself. I held the parts with pliers to give some distance between my fingers and the torch.
