We used this [test model](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1363023) to compare the printers qualities.
## Tables
<!-- These headings are just temporary to separate the tables -->
### Table 1
|TABLE 1||
|-|-|
|First, we use this 3D printer test, TEST1, to test: angle, bridging, overhang, hole, scale, stringing, diameter, and support. ||
|"Angle
|An overhang angle is the angle the overhang sticks out from horizontal."||
|"Bridging
|The bridge refers to the distance between two intermediate supports of a structure. Although horizontal spans are discouraged, certain geometries can be printed."||
|"Overhang
|An overhang is a part of the model that sticks out horizontally parallel to the build platform. This can cause the layers to lose their structure when printed without support.
|"||
|Hole||
|Scale||
|"Stringing
|""Stringing"" is caused when small strings of plastic are left behind on a 3D printed model (also called ""oozing,"" ""whisky,"" or ""hairy"" prints). Plastic usually oozes from the nozzle while the |extruder is moving to a new position."||
|Diameter||
|Then we test wall thickness, again without support, using this file, TEST2.||
|"Wall Thickness
|Supported walls are those that are connected to other walls on two or more sides."||
|Then, we do tests for overhand and clearance with support using these files, TEST3.||
|Overhang||
|"Clearance
|In a model, clearance is the distance needed between two moving parts (e.g., the gap between a gear and a joint)."||
