Explicit file naming to differentiate insert and hex nut part variants #104

Closed intelinc closed 2 years ago

intelinc commented 2 years ago

I'm about done with building/installing a 3.0 carriage on one of my printers. I usually prefer heated inserts, but I find that some of the current parts are more robust using hex-nuts. So I've printed a number of parts in both versions. This means that I have multiple identically named files that are actually different parts. It would be helpful to differentiate between the two fastener variants in the file names, just to make clear which version of the part it is for users that are experimenting with both.

One option would be to use the existing filename to apply to the heat insert versions, with a '_hex' appended to the nut insert versions. bl_touch_mount.stl vs bl_touch_mount_hex.stl

Just realized this is already implemented with the 'fi', but I just didn't catch it due some duplicate files.
