Heat Insert Press (Remake)

As I still had a couple of linear rails and guides from other projects as leftovers, I re-resigned this part of the press. Made some dimensions more “open” for more userfriendly assembly in case your printer does not highest quality in dimensioning.

Mainly the linear guide needed to be adapted for following system: 

• Rexroth guide
• It is linear rail 110mm long, 8x12mm HxW
• Should be compatible with Misumi or any Ali.
• It is linear rail carriage: Height carriage + rail = "System" 13mm!
• 4xM3 in 15/20mm distance (center to center), body is 27mm wide, 33.0mm long, 10mm high.
• Attached in the files section you'll find a Misumi data sheet. With that info you should know what linear guide this is.

Another change is the adaption to my soldering iron from Ø20mm original to Ø22mm my system.

Main pillar was printed in HIPS on my Voron 2.4, the outcome was somehow sub-optimal, but it worked. I had some rework (filing, grinding), which I incorporated to the optimized design. Pillar needed an adaption to my linear guide system, As well was the cantilver: soldering iron and linear guide carrier. For latter my solution was rather quick and dirty, but worked in the end. Wasting too much time for a re-design from scratch wasn't worthwhile to me.

Other parts in PLA on my Prusa MK4/MK3S+.

I don't want to compete with the Heat Insert Press with the origiator @BaGooN. He will have the credits for this nice press. Especially the solution for the spring is very genious. Thanks @BaGooN!
