The model has two circular test pads attached to ends of a parallelogram flexure. The intention is to use this to demonstrate a 50% reduction in motion at the centre of the mechanism when one of the pads is moved. The other end should be anchored to the substrate (UV Nail Gel is useful for this purpose).
To give an idea of scale, in the photograph of this example the test pads are 200μm (0.2mm) in diameter. Each unit in the model corresponds to 10μm when printed on the RepRapMicron. This was produced using a μRepRap fitted with a UV Head, and fabricated from eSun Standard Resin.
