   The MEGA65's injection molded plastic case is held together with three screws that go directly into the plastic. I routinely open my case for things, and also travel with it, so I wondered if I could mod the case for a more durable screw-hold solution.

   I learned about "heat set inserts" and thought they'd be perfect if I could get them to work. It seemed unlikely but I thought I'd try it... 1/ 🧵
