Description
I made this model to test to see if the corners of my bed were too far or too close to the nozzle of my Ender 3. You can scale this up or down in your slicer for your printer. This was done for PLA so I don't know how well this will work for other material like PETG and the like.
I haven't tested this on my Ender 5 Plus which has auto leveling so I don't know how it works for that application. Update will come when I have a chance to do it.
The way to discern whether or not it's too far or too close, I have included example pictures. If it is “Too close” you'll have almost like little hairs and rises out the side of where the nozzle made a pass. "Too Far" and you'll have little gaps in between the nozzle passes.
The other thing that you will need to do for the Ender 3 is, when you load it into your slicer, is move the model by “-1.9” on the X-axis.
