A request:
I’m trying out some #3dPrinting tolerances for small print-in-place mechanisms.
This entire object is 18x12mm - I’m aiming for something generally printable on a range of printers without futzing about in a slicer.
If I threw this on #Printables would you give it a test print and report back if it works on your printer?
It’s 1.37 grams and takes about 7 minutes on a slower printer.
(Excuse my son for video bombing: nothing keeps him from his afternoon toy car races)
