This is a simple jig, you set the adjustable legs to the height of insert required and lock insert in place on the bolt & screw. I remove material from the non-lead end of the insert.

 

Run this across a metal file and once all the legs touch the base it should be the correct size.

I did try this with sandpaper but it needs to be harder than the sandpaper.

 

There are 4 holes, 1 each for M3, M4, M5 and ¼-20 threaded inserts.

 

To use you need;

4 x M5 threaded inserts

4 x M5 Hex head bolts

All or whichever one you need, 1 of each of

M3 thread insert

M4 thread insert

M5 thread insert

¼-20 thread insert
