Dialing in your printer is really important if you’re prototyping injection molded parts that need to snap together, so that’s why I built this. I could get X & Y pretty good with Josh’s calculator, but my Z dimension was way off, and was causin…

Print Better by Discovering your Form1+ Advanced Calibrations

You can get better prints by knowing about the errors in your Form1+. You can even print this at the same time as other models so you don’t have to do a special run. And if you post your results, we can discover what is typical is too. I made this test file for the community and just printed it: https://www.dropbox.com/s/qbbuyuo4oxdqepv/Form1%2B%20Scale%20Test.form?dl=1 (Form1+ Scale Test.form) And then measured it with a digital caliper. And from the various measurements I was able to dis…
