Notes:
Print as shown. Tolerances are very tight and I would recommend after printing to use a metal M4 boltt to clean the thread, especially if the nut will be used with a 3D printed bolt.

* Note that, if printed in PETG and using with bolt also printed in PETG, they’ll bind much more than if printed in PLA, so I would recommend slightly reducing the size of the bolt on both the X and Y axis to 99% and enlarging the nut on both the X and Y axis to 101%.
