Thanks Jonah. Can you post the minimum bed size for each print please?

Hey there! If you have a look at the last image in the gallery it'll have a photo with dimensions for you. I realised I forgot to add them on one of the listings, so they all have them now. The measurements are in millimetres, hope that helps!
Awesome inserts Jonah, I was wondering if the M18 21 gauge will fit into the mold for the stapler? Or do you have one for the 21 gauge M18 nailer? Thanks, Chris.

Hey there Chris, thanks for the message. The inserts I design are specific to each make and model of tool to allow for safe storage and not rattling around, so I would say that only the M12 Staple Gun will fit in that insert. I personally don't own am M18 nailer, so unfortunately I am unable to do anything insert related for that tool. I need to have a tool in hand physically to be able to design and create my designs, really sorry mate.
Is there any chance you could cut some of your files to make them printable on a bed size of 200mm or less?? I’m always looking for a reason to buy another printer though.

Hey there! If you need them to be smaller, It’s super easy to slice the file into smaller parts to fit and then glue them together with some super glue after. I’ve been doing that for years and works perfectly. To help you, I’ll let you in on a secret and show you the free software I use for quickly splitting up STL files to fit smaller beds The software is called Netfabb, it was bought out by Autodesk but you can still download the old free/basic version from here: http://julesgilson.com/2017/05/08/download-the-old-netfabb-basic-free/ You simply open the STL file in Netfabb, and then you can use the sliders on the right near the bottom to decide for a spot to chop them in half (it’s the sliders for the X, Y and Z axis) Netfabb then let’s you cut along that line and then export them as print friendly STL files It’s an amazing piece of software to have for getting STLs to fit your print bed, and you can tailor is to your exact preferences And then you can simply super glue the bits together Hope that helps mate!
Is there a preffered filament to use when printing these inserts?
Creator
I personally use ABS thanks to its heat resistance and durability. Hope that helps!
Do you mind sharing some basic print settings?
Love your designs. Can I print a few copies of each that I buy. I own a construction company and we have multiple setups. 3-5 depending on the tool. I wouldn’t sell anything just for our use
