Make sure to do so. When setting up supports on the arms, only use manual supports on the bottom rings and around the handle. Auto supports will mess up the space to place the nuts. If you don't want to have this, I have uploaded a version without the internal nuts.</p><p>As for the grip inserts, they are to be printed in the orientation they are already in, and can use auto supports. Additionally, to make them grippy, I used the fuzzy skin feature. The settings I used were: 0.30 mm skin thickness and 0.70 mm point distance. However, you can mess with this as you please. The reason for the specific orientation is to make sure the grip is in the correct direction.</p></div>
