Topic: Printer Testing

When I get my printer and calibrated I was thinking of printing this to see what the limits of the printer actually are.  Do you think I will have any problems with it or should add anything to it?

Re: Printer Testing

That sure seems like a monster print! I'm as much of a noob as you are. (still waiting on my sd3...) but there is a nice torture test file on thingaverse that is much smaller plus has the added advantage on being able to compare your results with other people who have printed it.

Try printing overhangs/bridges if you want to test what you SD can do.  Do the prints in both .3 and then .1mm and see what kind of results you get.
