Scale and fit02
Changing scale does not confirm fit.
From 1:10 to 1:24: calculate 41.67% and discover what to measure again before assembly.
Read the guideShare what you learned03
Your build can teach more than a cover.
Record conditions, joints and changes so someone else can learn from your print.

A small detail.
A better project.
Choose a joint from your next build and check it before printing everything. A small test can answer an important question.
