Settings
The ideal settings for this print allow for a base level assessment that lacks bias. Using the settings to the left can be great for testing out the machine’s accuracy and/or new materials to ensure that they are extruding correctly. If you want to be ambitious you can test new print settings to get dynamic material properties while ensuring that extrusion remains constant with the tuned settings.


Inspection:
In order to assess this model, you will need to use a vernier/micrometer to check;
