Topic: Easy print calibration piece

Reading through the forum, I have noticed that people have asked for an easy to print calibration piece which everybody could use to help fine tune their calibration, and that other members could have the exact item to help suggest solutions to any problems.

Whilst surfing on the interweb, I came across this item on Instructables by Sardau which I think may fit the bill - Has helped me to fine tune mine. It also has a locating hole in the print to allow exact placement smile

It was originally 30mm high, but I have also built a 90mm high one as I was getting artefacts from the smaller one for some reason.

STL files below.

Re: Easy print calibration piece

After tuning my system with the previous pieces I posted, I decided to go big and make a larger version which is the height of the horizontal height required, but also highlights errors easier due to the closer/further distances away.

Attached is the STL file for the larger version and shown below is a screen grab from one of my recent scans (as displayed after capture - no clean up) shown.
