what you got against drop in nuts ?

I actually make my own for non critical add-ons and mods and slot a 3mm nut into the plastic part :-)
The tiamet diamond dust filament makes fantastically strong drop in nuts. And polycarbonatre would as well.
have to try that :-)

the spring loaded ones are a good idea. the main hassle with pre loaded nuts is the fact that they slide all over the bloody place.

So what high temp filaments are you looking at ?
And would some of these applications be car related by any chance ;-)

Everything I can think of needs a pretty hot enclosed build volume.
The minifactory peek printer basically prints inside a hot oven.

what you got against drop in nuts ?

With this size extrusion if you are using drop in nuts you are sacrificing bolt diameter and contact patch for ease of assembly. If we are using printed parts then we make this problem worse. But if we use sliding T slot nuts then we do not need the thickness of the nut to be able to pass through the hole in the extrusion and instead of 4mm we can use 5mm hardware and enjoy twice the surface area biting on the extrusion..
