Temperature Stringing calibration blocks

thingiverse

Here is a test print for calibrating your hot-end temperature. This is to see how your printing temperature influences stringing over spans and blobbing on fine detail. Inspired by the temperature calibration test shown at:http://support.3dverkstan.se/article/23-a-visual-ultimaker-troubleshooting-guide#stringing I included the ipt. file if you'd like to change the text to different temperatures. Instructions Printed on 0.2mm layer height. In Repetier host I set the temperature (under "Manual Control") as the printer reached each new section. You could also manually edit the G-code. Find the layer on which the temperature should change and insert the "M104 Sxxx" command where "xxx"=the desired temperature E.g. M104 S230 for 230ºC. It seems the small overhangs are kinda tricky to get right, I tried increasing the wall thickness setting but still had the first layer of each dangle down.
