UFS-095 E-step Calibration Ruler - Larger Letters

cults3d

I have calibrated my printer's e-step. It was awkward to hold the long ruler in place to mark the measurements. Despite the trouble,I thought it was a good adjustment and worth the trouble. Then I saw this part and thought it was a better way to mark the distance. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4640432 The only problem was I couldn't read any of the numbers after it was printed using a 0.4mm nozzle. If you look at the picture of the original part in the link, the letters aren't clear either. I decided to make it a little wider (3mm) and increase the size of the font by 50%. I made another version with raised letters. It is still difficult to print legibly, but it is slightly easier to read with the larger font. The raised letters are the most clear and I would recommend it. Another issue with the original design is I didn't like the length. 120mm is too long. I would be have preferred 100mm. My printer was under extruding and didn't go over 100mm. I figured some people could be over extruding. For these people, I shortened it to 110mm.
