This is a simple yet accurate overhang print test that is calibrated every 5 degrees.
How to use:
1. Print with your chosen settings you want to test.
2. Look for delamination and non-adhesion areas on the under side of the arch.
3. Count the number of holes from the bottom to the closest uneven area
4. Look up the number hole counted to the number on the bottom scale for degrees
5. That is your printers critical print angle.
Note: Apply supports to any surface angle greater than the tested critical angle for quality
prints. I would leave a 5 degree margin for all prints to be safe and worry free.
