calibration ball

thingiverse

This is a quick test to evaluate surface quality overhangs and calibrate your printer's accuracy with ease. Use callipers to double-check printer precision if you like. It was created in Blender, where it still remains remarkably small in size; let's scale this object up by 10 so that its dimensions match perfectly at 20mm x 20mm. The main purpose of this object is to make calibrating your printer as smooth and straightforward a process as possible, allowing for a quick evaluation of printer accuracy. Any additional suggestions for enhancing and improving this project would be greatly appreciated! **Printer Settings** **Rafts:** You have the freedom to set rafts however you see fit; the results are all but indifferent to the setting. **Supports:** Likewise, support settings can be chosen at whim with little noticeable difference in the end result. **Resolution:** Resolution can range from a low of 0.2mm to an extremely high and precise setting of 0.1mm.
