This provides a vertical motion for inserting brass heatset inserts into 3d printed parts.
This press uses a Weller SP40NKUS soldering iron to insert heatset inserts. I use the tips from [McMaster](https://www.mcmaster.com/catalog/124/3395) under "Installation Tips for Heat-Set Inserts" - but plenty of people just a normal tip.
**Warning** that soldering iron will heat up when left vertical. You will need to stop and let it cool every 10-15 minutes or else it will start to soften the clamp.
Printed parts:
One copy of everything but foot_pad.stl. I used PLA, but a more heat-tolerant material would probably be better.
foot_pad.stl is optional, I printed 4 of these out of TPU and glued them under the foot so that the screw heads under the bottom would not hit my bench.
Additional hardware:
* 1x [8mm linear shaft](http://a.co/d/5ACVsS8) - feel free to go longer or shorter
* 1x [M5 Tapered heatset insert](https://www.mcmaster.com/94180a361) - for height adjustment k
