Description

The existing radius gauges did not fully meet my requirements, prompting me to design these new ones. I sought gauges that could be conveniently attached to a keychain or something similar, eliminating the need to sort them post-use. Additionally, I required the flexibility to swiftly detach a single gauge for use in hard-to-reach corners.

Updates

17.01.2024: I've introduced an 'Imprint' variant to the RAW files and the regular print profile. This new version is designed to be more space-efficient, with all gauges sitting flush against each other. The key feature of this variant is the cut-out number on the top layer, which reveals a contrasting color from the layer beneath.

21.01.2024: I just published an extended range of radius gauges, ranging from 30 to 100mm.

Printing Instructions

You have the option to enhance the readability of the numbers by performing a manual filament swap (already included in the print profile) during printing, maintain a single color for simplicity, or add color post-printing using a Sharpie marker.

Make sure you have great bed adhesion as the sharp corners are vulnerable to warping. Maybe you have to use a smooth pei sheet or spray adhesive. However, I have consistently achieved successful prints of this model on an open-frame P1P printer using the standard textured PEI sheet without encountering any problems.

Nice design that takes up minimal space. Using the embossed size on the gauge is a great feature. Thanks

Looks great! Can you tell me what these bands or ropes are called, you use to have them fiddled in?

perfect. was a bit surprised the numbers are layered on top, not inlaid. it does make them tactile, but the tiles don't stack neatly unless interleaved

Thank you for the feedback. Nice color scheme! You are right, I will provide an inlaid variant as alternative so people have a choice.
