Description
A simple 100mm (4"), flat, flexible resin spreader with one flat edge and three notched edges with notch sizes approximately 3.3mm (1/8″) 5mm (3/16″), 6.7mm (1/4″). It's a lot like the similar looking spreaders that you can buy for a few dollars from West Systems or Red Devil. I've just found that it's cheaper and and more convenient to print them on demand, and I prefer the hole in the middle for easier handling.
I print these at 0.2mm layer height with 100% infill at reasonably fast settings. They take 30 minutes to an hour, depending on which printer or material (generally whatever left over PLA, PETG, or ABS I have lying around).
