Learn the best methods for adding threads to 3D printed parts, from tapped holes to metal inserts, for stronger and more durable connections.

One of the challenges with 3D printing is seeing how far designs can be pushed before they break. This includes aspects like flexible hinges and structural components, but also smaller details such… ...

When printing with the naive Cura defaults for the supports, they are basically impossible to remove cleanly enough to result in usable threads.

Autodesk's Tinkercad is a free Web-based design tool that enables you to create 3D objects, then download those creations in a printer-friendly format. Here's how to get started.
