I have printed the original probably 20 times, great model. I needed a version of the ¼-20 with a captive nut nearer the base, so here we are. Still no supports needed. Add your filament change gcode at the top of the opening for the captive nut, set it in with light pressure after pause/park and resume printing. I found the first layer of filament after insertion laid down nicer if I scuff up one side of the nut a little bit. Worked well regardless, but print was prettier when I did that.
