(Sorry the model is 90* the wrong way. Just need to rotate it in the slicer.)
I designed this in Solidworks. I was curious how the layers looked at standard quality, side by side.
Things tested and visualized in this model:
• Number of Layers (Sheet Thickness) correlating to Actual Solidworks Model Thickness in mm
• Text Thickness matching the Sheet Thickness as close as possible.
-To visualize how text is picked up in the slicer. (Cura used)
•Help designers understand the Text threshold that Cura recognizes. Must be greater than 0.4 mm at the thinnest section!
•Physical model to help a designer fully understand Layers and Text
Text print takes approx. 1 hour
P.S. The text portion was raised 0.2mm or 1 layer off the base surface.
-Thank you for your support ^_^
