📏 Measuring Instructions (Very Important)

This model wraps around the outer ear — sizing matters.

How to Measure:

Measure the height of your ear (top rim to lobe).

Measure the curve length along the outer ear edge.

Compare to the model height in your slicer.

If needed:

• Scale uniformly 95–105% for better fit • Print a low-infill draft test first

Everyone’s ear shape is different — minor scaling is normal.

🖨️ Printing Instructions Recommended Materials (Wearable)

• PLA • PLA-HT • FPLA • PETG • Flexible / elastomer-based filament (for comfort fit)

For conventions: PETG or slightly flexible filament recommended for durability.

Layer Height

0.12–0.16 mm for best detail 0.2 mm acceptable for faster prints

🔥 Fit Adjustment Tip

For fine-tuning fit:

Use a hairdryer or heat gun (low setting). Gently warm the inner curve. Adjust carefully to your ear shape. Hold in place until cooled.
