Description

What it is

A compact gauge to determine inner and outer radii/diameter, ranging from 1 to 20 mm. It also works well as a coaster.

What to print

There are multiple variants awaiting you:

 

  • Central gauge version 1
    • measures from 1 to 10 mm in 0.5 mm increments
    • ring gauges for round stock, drills, … from 1 to 10 mm in 1 mm increments, clearance designed is 0.1 mm
  • Central gauge version 2
    • measures from 1 to 10 mm in 0.5 mm increments
    • central hole (35mm)
    • digits running cw/ccw like on the embracing gauge
  • Central gauge version 3
    • measures from 1 to 10 mm in 0.5 mm increments
    • central hole (26mm)
    • bigger depressed digits & coloured edges
  • Embracing gauge version 1
    • measures from 11 to 20 mm diameter in 1 mm increments
    • 15° angular scale
  • Embracing gauge version 2
    • measures from 11 to 20 mm diameter in 1 mm increments
    • 15° angular scale
    • huge depressed digits & coloured edges
    • snap fit with central gauges
  • Recommendable remixes
    • If you want this design expanded to measure up to 40mm (or as coaster for a beer-keg?) DavidsGotWood got you covered here with a next size up embracing gauge.
  • Stand alone variants
    • 5mm thick
    • no nesting but great to fidget with
    • available here

How to print

Recommended for printing is a 0.4 mm nozzle and 0.2 mm layer height. Printing with a 0.6mm nozzle and Arachne activated is possible, as can be seen in the pictures above.

A multi color version is just a matter of simple filament changes between layers. The digits on top differ in height by 0.2 mm which lets you print them in two colors. → The here orange depicted digits read the adjacent bulge diameter and are 0.2mm higher than the white ones, which read the adjacent inside curvature.

Material at one's discretion, I used PETG in four different colors.

What next

There may be improvements and modifications based on feedback given here.

If you prefer a smaller tool for the same task, my Diameter Worm may be a good choice.

Measuring instead of gauging angles can be done with my printable Vernier bevel protractor.

good options to choose from and brilliant integrated design the only part i haven't been able to work out how to use yet is the angle finder as you have to guess the centre. pla in gold silk and green sparkle all in all good print and design

good recommended settings and the split model made for an easy slice and quality print! I only wish I had higher contrast filaments to use

A very nicely made and detailed Model. I printed it in PETG for added flexibility, but I think the details might be more crisp in PLA.

Printing went good, just colors were used through whole layer, not only for labels. I am not sure why it is done like that.

Added ironing for a smooth finish
