## "Bring Your Test Models"
|
||||
## Maker Coin Holder Design
|
||||
|
||||
This month's challenge is all about the models we use to test, tune, and calibrate our printers. Everyone has a favorite "go-to" print—whether it's a Benchy, a calibration cube, a torture test, or something unique you've found.
|
||||
|
||||
**Bring your favorite test models to the meetup!**
|
||||
This month's challenge is to design a holder for our **Maker Coin**.
|
||||
|
||||
## Challenge Details
|
||||
|
||||
### The Goal
|
||||
Share what test models you use and why. Do you use them for:
|
||||
- Calibrating dimensional accuracy?
|
||||
- Testing overhangs and bridging?
|
||||
- Tuning retraction settings?
|
||||
- Checking first layer adhesion?
|
||||
- Just for fun?
|
||||
Design and print a custom holder, stand, or display for the 3D Fuel / Filament Fabricators Maker Coin.
|
||||
|
