This is a test to calibrate your slicer when it comes in diagonal printing. The first part starts at a 45 degree angle and it ends at an 80 degree angle with steps of 5 degrees. The object is unlikely to be succesfully printed :)

I made this test for 2 reasons, I was interested in how diagonal I could print and I wanted to know how to get the prittiest results. In Craftware, my favourite slicer, I could set the printing order of the infills, inner loops and outer permimeters.

I printed it 3 times and the best way for me was infills --> loops --> perimeters.

The last print which used this order, actually finished succesfully and my k8200 with stock extruder printed a flank under 80 degree angle without support. Though it has some hanging wires and it not pritty, it did get finished

One of the problems you will encouter is that the corners tend to curl upward a bit, and will leave scorch marks. You can use this test to calibrate your preferred slicer for an optimal result. It
