I’m looking to start keeping hardware for prints that need additional parts to complete them. A Pi case that I printed needed screws that I don’t have on hand and needed to go searching for some.

It got me thinking to keep a container of stuff ready that would get used often, but I don’t really know what to keep on hand. What do you have readily available?

    I really liked using heat set inserts but it was a bit of a learning curve to design for. I’ve used m2.5 to m4 and would definitely recommend going for bigger screw sizes if your part can allow it. I’ve had issues with plastic getting into the small sizes and semi ruining the threads
