This is a digital object built to help me model FDM friendly miniatures in 3D sculpting programs that lack or have hard to use measuring tools to keep angles, sizes and thickness within FDM printing limitations.
It also doubles as a minimalist test for cilinders, overhangs and small bridges for miniatures!

The smaller cone tests 45 degree angles and the bigger one tests 60 degrees overhangs. The middle rod tests cilinders thicker than 0.8 (top) and 1.6 mm (bottom) (1 and 2 perimeters for 0.4 nozzle).
The walls at the base checks ffor thickness smaller than 0.8 and 1.6mm for walls
The base helps keep the orientation of the print direction and checks for islands (slowling moving it from bottom to top).

I plan on recording a video detailing how to use it in modeling when I have time, but I wished to release it for safekeeping and sharing to whover wishes to test it.
