I wanted a visual representation of how thick 1mm or 4mm really is. Sometimes when designing a part, it's helpful to have a quick reference to see those thickness manifest in the real world. This is a quick all-in-one set from 1mm to 5mm. The 5mm will thread onto the shaft from the 1mm (be gentle) and if you work it back and forth a little once fully seated, they will rotate without much issue. You can now quickly pull this out and get an idea of just how thick you should make your component so it has the right feel and scale. You can also use these to check against a good set of calipers to verify how accurate your printer is, in case you ever need precise heights.
