Calibration and quest cube

thingiverse

I designed this cube model for several purposes: 1. I used to assign my students a task where they had to create a solid that could pass through the three types of holes in this figure. The side of the cube is equal to the diameter of the circle and equal to the base and height of the triangle, which helps them think about solid forms. Normally, I have this model made from transparency film sheets or cardboard. But now with my 3D printer, I can finally create it exactly how I envisioned it. 2. To calibrate my 3D printer, I printed numerous x, y, and z calibration cubes that I can use to teach crystaline forms in a lattice structure. One can also use this cube to check the dimensions of any object for calibration purposes. 3. This cube allows me to verify stringing issues and other common problems during the calibration process. 4. It's also possible to calibrate geometric shapes, sizes, and dimensions using this cube. 5. I created it simply for fun. This is a 25mm cube made from 1.75 silver PLA plastic. The hotend temperature is set at 215°C, while the heatbed temperature is 70°C. The skirt is set to three loops, layer height is 0.3mm, and nozzle size is 0.4mm with a retraction of 7mm. Have fun printing this cube without supports or brims! If anyone needs help solving it, please ask!
