**Note: you will need to use the customizer for this to be useful.** (Or use the OpenSCAD model directly)
Think a 3D printer lacks the resolution to print splines to fit on an RC servo? Think again!
This customizer generates a test plate with splines of slightly different sizes. By fine-tuning the sizes, you can usually get a pretty good fit.
The behavior of the printer and the slicer will have a large influence on the final shape, so this must be kept in mind. Even the slicer layer height or printing speed could have a small effect on the shape, and could mean the difference between a good fit and a loose fit that slips.
**Slice and print the test plate using a configuration as close as possible to the final print.**
Here's how you can get a good fit on your servo:
1. Count the number of 'teeth' on the spline. It is very important that this number is exactly correct. I've found a close-up picture to be helpful.
2. Measure the diameter of the spline. This will s
