Description

This flexible 20 cm ruler is a simple but highly practical tool for your desk, pencil case, or workshop.
Made from PLA or other common filaments, it prints in one piece and offers a great combination of functionality and flexibility.

 

The ruler features:

✅ Clearly marked 1 mm scale from 0 to 20 cm

✅ Long slots for visual line alignment or quick marking

✅ Rounded end with a hanging hole

✅ Fully bendable (even with PLA)

✅ Clean and sleek design with sharp text

 

🛠 Print Settings:

  • Layer height: 0.2 mm
  • Infill: 100 % (for best durability)
  • No supports needed
  • Material: PLA (standard works fine, but PETG or flexible filaments also possible)
  • Color change or painting recommended for text visibility (optional)
  • Works with a 0.4 mm nozzle (see the pictures), but i think details like numbers and ticks are sharper with 0.2 mm nozzle

Fits on a Bambu Lab A1 mini print bed, but you’ll need to rotate the ruler diagonally in your slicer.

 

Ideal for quick measurements, line marking, or just to flex your print tolerances 😉.
