One plate that tells you exactly what clearances your printer can hold.
The plate carries 33 test parts: 11 different fit features — rings, pins, gears, snap fits and wall-thickness cards among them — each in three sizes, with the size stamped right into the part. Print the plate once, then work through the five fit tests in the attached guide (Fit_Test_Plate_Guide.pdf). The stamped size that fits best is the clearance your printer actually holds — design with that number and your lids, pins and snap fits land first try instead of after three reprints.
This is the tester we use to dial in the clearances on our own village designs. It prints as a single plate of separate parts, no supports, on any FDM printer. The first photo is our own printed plate in matte white PLA.
This is the free download of the plain print file.
