Add a pen. Put the screws.

 

Use the middle screw to lock/unlock the compass. You don't need to overtight the screw to lock the compass. A short pressure should be enough.

 

2 versions :

  • Plastic point : 100% printed compass. 

Use a small file to make a sharp point but it remains a plastic point.

  • Metal point : if you want a more precise compass, use this one.

 You will need to cut the point of a pin and insert it in the small hole. This version has an articulated point protector to avoid holes in pockets and cases.

Print Settings :

  • Printed on MK3S
  • Filament tested : PLA - PETG
  • Nozzle 0.4mm : 0.20mm tested
  • Scale : 100% (PLA) and 130% (PETG) tested 

 

Use this compass lightly, don't overtight the middle screw and you will draw very precise circles !
