So, in my experiments, I took a small part measuring 50.8 x 15.3 x 8.36 high. The print came out 48.34 x 14.82 x 8.09 high (all mm).
Then I calculated the percentage the part is smaller - 4.84% x 3.137% x 3.229%.
I then upscaled the model by those percentages and printed again. I got 50.57 x 15.3 x 8.47. Much closer now.
So is there an average I need to use, or does each axis need its own percentage adjustment to get to my actual size?
