Clearance/gap test

thingiverse

Test your FDM printers for X and Y axis clearance or gap test. It will help you find out the capacity of your printer to print two surfaces without getting fused or stuck together. You can know the smallest clearance you can leave between surfaces for your CAD designs. Obviously, this test is Inspired by similar other test prints available out there but I wanted to design my own and something that would print in less than 2 hours and does not waste too much material. Also, unlike some test prints, the elephant's foot effect has been mitigated and will help you get a more accurate understanding of your printer's capabilities. try to print with 50% infill as it will let you have a stronger print and since the size of the part is quite small, it won't increase time and material consumption. Please share your experience printing this test down in the comments. Thank you! Vishal
