XYZ_CallibrationCube.stl

This is a small and simple XYZ calibration cube for checking the dimensional accuracy of your printer.   The cube has X, Y and Z written along their respective axes.

Once printed either use an accurate ruler or callipers to measure the dimensions of the print. The original model size is 20mm*20mm*20mm however you may wish to resize it to be bigger (or smaller). 

Once you have measured your dimensions you may want to adjust the steps or steps per mm for each axis in your printers firmware - This may or may not be possible depending on your printer. 

To do this you will need to find your current Steps per mm, and then have your observed dimension and expected dimension.

To calculate the new Steps per mm you will need to do:

(Expected/Observed)*Current Steps per mm = New Steps per mm

It is also good as just giving a gauge of how well your 3D printer works with small over hangs and flat faces to check for Z-Banding or ghosting!

Easy Torture test -Torture Cube

This is a very easy very simple torture test to see the dimensional accuracy of your print and also slightly test your overhangs!!
This is a small ornate "cube" which can be printed in about 30-50mins depending on your settings.
I print one with faces parallel to the axes and then another at a 45 degree angle to test the diagonals of the printer.
