Can someone extend my thing please? .stl file included

[Feek]

The attached file is a calendar hanger but I find the arm that sticks out is a little too short - Some calendars are 15 month and I struggle to get them to stay on there.

I don't have any 3d tools to enable me to extend this so I wonder if some nice person could just extend it by 3mm please? I did try just scaling it up a but that made it too large to go through the hole in the calendar.

Ta.

Any good?

Ooo, I dunno. It's telling me I have to request access, are you able to make it open please?

Just changed permissions, try again!

Just changed permissions, try again!

I can download it now but it's a bit big.

When say a bit big, it's absolutely huge!

The orange one is the original, the blue one doesn't even fit on the printer bed

If I shrink it down to 10% of the size, the sticky out bit is the same length as the original.

Fusion 360 has a habit of doing that!

Let me go back into it and try it all again with the right scaling.

 

[andy_mk3]

Try this one I completely forgot about Fusion 360's scaling sometimes being weird. So what I effectively did before was add 0.3mm to it.

Hopefully this'll do you.

That's more like it, looks like it'll do the job nicely, thanks.

 

[Feek]

Yup, they both work. Thanks @andy_mk3 and @ElliorR

 

[andy_mk3]

You're welcome.

I thought a man of your calibre would be all over a bit of 3D design though

 

[Feek]

I'm really not very creative, it's not something which has ever appealed to me.

a very naughty chair that.

Printed. Perfect.

First layer is completely flat and smooth, top layer not quite so but this is really closeup so it's obvious. When it's stuck on the wall, it's invisible anyway because it's behind the calendar.

 

[andy_mk3]

It's hard to achieve a top layer surface finish that's perfect. Although that finish may either indicate the nozzle being slightly too close to the bed or a very slight amount of over-extrusion. But it's a perfectly nice print for something of that size.

Over-extruding to my eye, calibrate those extruder steps.
