Basic Circular Sieve (for testing MP Mini-Delta build-plate leveling)

thingiverse

My younger bro had me model a simple circular sieve for testing our Monoprice Mini-Delta printer's leveling issue. The problem was that the first several layers of every print would thin out on one side of the build-plate. We soon discovered it was just a matter of adjusting the belt tension. I'll let you try your hand at printing this sieve. That's all for now. UPDATE: It looks like this simple model has sparked a lot of interest! In any case, I thought I'd share an update with everyone. Printing a 1mm x 1mm cube with a huge raft covering the entire build-plate actually turned out to be a better test than this sieve was. When we tried printing the sieve, for some reason the printer just wouldn't cooperate and instead started churning out tiny circles all over the place. So here's what I'd recommend: Just fill that build plate with a massive raft, and it'll print in nice, straight lines instead of those pesky little circles. It seems our printers can be a bit quirky sometimes!
