    Small Thin Square 3D printed or Milled

    I needed a thin small square for my milling vise. Setting a part on it's end with the long edge up
    can lead to a part that is not vertical with the milling spindle. Regular machinist squares can be
    too thick and too long to do this so I printed this small, thin, square.

    Of course this is not as accurate as using a dial indicator on the vertical edge, however is is much
    faster when you do not need to be perfect.

    Use 10 perimeters and it should come out solid without any infill.
    Two files are provided, one small and one medium.

    Cheers, JR
