I've started experimenting with different nozzle sizes and didn't want to accidentally run a gcode through the printer for the wrong nozzle, so I made up this simple indicator to quickly see which nozzle is currently installed. The arrow stays in place and the outer labels rotate.

I made this in FreeCAD and it really didn't like trying to create a 0, and I knew printing a decimal would be difficult, so I left it as:

2 for 0.2mm

3 for 0.3mm

4 for 0.4mm

5 for 0.5mm

6 for 0.6mm

8 for 0.8mm

1 for 1.0mm

I added the bar between 1 and 2 to indicate the start/end position for the label


Assembly instructions:

The Backplate has the Labels placed over it, then the Arrow. I superglued my arrow in to keep it all together.
