A video about a deep dive into testing machine screws threading directly into 3D printed holes. Testing different hole sizes, part orientation to understand how much re-use you can get out of standard screws in 3D printed parts. Embedded nuts or melt in nut inserts will have better performance, but for many design applications they are not needed.
