Presenting a compact and precise 3D printed Radius Gauge tool, essential for 3D modeling, woodworking, metalworking, and quality control of prints. This simple, yet highly effective tool allows you to quickly and accurately check curves, fillets, and rounded corners.
• Measurement Range: The tool features sixteen cutouts: eight convex (external) and eight concave (internal). It allows measurement of radii in the range of R 1 up to R 12. Each radius is clearly marked on the body.
• Precision and Clarity: The model is designed for single-color printing (e.g., black). To ensure maximum legibility, the numbers and radius markings should be painted after printing, for instance, using a white marker. This method is easy and effectively contrasts the numbers against the background.
• Versatility: Ideal for checking rounded furniture edges, controlling the curvature of pillars, measuring rounded holes in 3D prints, and for precise CAD design referencing.
• Durable and Compact: The gear-like shape makes the tool handy, and it can be easily mounted on a workshop wall or stored in a drawer.
⚙ Printing Tips
• Material: PLA or PETG. For heavy use, PETG will offer greater durability.
• Infill: 100% infill is suggested for maximum rigidity and dimensional accuracy.
• Finishing: After printing, use a marker to fill the engraved numbers to improve legibility.
