Threaded insert practice block for Hanglife threaded inserts (e.g. https://a.co/d/5IoIEtq).

I'd uploaded a block earlier, but the holes were sized based on the "Dimensions" of the inserts - Hanglife doesn't include hole dimensions on this kit! But when I bought individual replacements, they DO have specifications. So this block is sized to those. I also have both Blind and Through practice holes here.

Here are Hanglife's recommendations. The practice block is sized to the larger of the recommended hole sizes. Blind holes are set to 1mm deeper than the insert; Through holes are stepped to tight (+0.2mm) screw clearance at the depth of the insert.

Insert: M2
Hole size: 2.66-2.70mm
Wall thickness (min): 1.3mm

Insert: M2.5
Hole size: 3.16-3.20mm
Wall thickness (min): 1.6mm

Insert: M3
Hole size: 4.31-4.35mm
Wall thickness (min): 1.6mm

Insert: M4
Hole size: 5.31-5.35mm
Wall thickness (min): 2.1mm

Insert: M5
Hole size: 6.36-6.40mm
Wall thickness (min): 2.6mm

Insert: M6
Hole size: 8.0
