This is a simple lithophane calibration square designed to help dial in optimal wall thickness and light transmission for your printer, filament, and light source.
The model transitions smoothly from 0.16 mm to 2.08 mm in 0.08 mm increments, making it easy to see exactly how thickness affects brightness, contrast, and detail when backlit.
Why use this tester?
Compare light diffusion vs. contrast at different thicknesses
Find the sweet spot for your printer + filament combo
Tune settings before printing a full lithophane
Quickly spot over/under-exposed thickness ranges
Printing notes
0.16mm first layer thickness, 0.08mm layer height
Print flat for best accuracy
Use 100% infill
No supports required
Works with standard 0.4 mm nozzles
PLA recommended (but other filaments can be tested too)
Backlight the finished print with an LED or light panel and note which thickness range produces the best balance of brightness and detail for your setup.
Perfect as a quick reference tool before committing to longer lithophane prints.
