Instructions:
Only fill out the yellow fields
1) print the part from: https://www.printables.com/model/546871
2) Measure the distances as indicated in the diagram, and fill in the yellow fields
in green is the result you can use for your printer setting
in blue are the recomended toleances (gaps between parts) to be used when designing
