Vertical Test Piece 3D Printer test
Testing to see if the 3D printer prints vertical.
Perpendicular 90° 3D printer testing.
On some of tallish 3D prints where about 5mm off true over about 150mm high.
This is not due to layers shifting but most likely a mechanical issue e.g. 3D frame not totally in line, etc.
The resting pads, (to place a square onto for checking), separately so the can be positioned at a place convenient to you.
The longer version has longer parts to rest a square onto. This longer also has some tabs on the back side to help keep it stable while checking.
