Description
A compact tool to determine the size and length of screws & bolts. In contrast to other designs it offers a unique cylindrical design which packs additional features like measuring flathead screws and corresponding nut sizes on the same tool.
There are multiple variants awaiting you:

Recommended for printing is a 0.2 mm layer height. Printing with a 0.6mm nozzle and Arachne activated in PrusaSlicer works well, as can be seen in the pictures above.
A multi color version is just a matter of filament changes between layers. 3mf files for the mini and standard variant are provided. If you happen to have a MMU, you can of course go crazy with the markings.
In case it won't print neatly after a filament change: A draft shield, wipe tower or any object to consume filament beforehand (establishing good flow by doing so) may help.
Material at one's discretion, I used PETG in two different colors.
There may be improvements and modifications based on feedback given here.
Maybe, take a look at my other designs ;-)
