Calibration Square Variance

[Jules]

A solid cube, with:

Infill = 0
Top layers = 0
Bottom layers = 0
Outlines = 1
1st Layer Height = 100%

And make sure that you have the cube parked on the XY surface of the table. (Edit > Drop Model to Table)

That one you're trying to print dates back to 2014. There might have been a few changes since then.

It worked! Thanks!

then slices to this

That looks very much like the model's wall thickness (set in the OpenSCAD source code) is smaller than the minimum thread width (set in the slicer). Because the slicer has no way to produce a plastic thread thin enough to fit inside the wall, it emits some random junk and calls it a day...

You can thicken the wall or shrink the thread. It'll probably be easier to thicken the wall until the slicer produces the correct output, rather than putzing around with the extrusion settings. However, if you're measuring the actual wall thickness, make sure you know what the slicer thinks it's producing, because the wall should measure exactly that when everything's set up correctly.

Thanks Ed, I will change the variables in OpenSCAD and play with them until it slices correctly.
