INTRODUCTION!!!!!!
If you are having problems with distortion in dimension in your print or your parts are not coming out in the correct proportion you may be in need to re-calibrate your axis in the x y or z axis. I designed this method for myself and it has worked very well as seen in the pictures. So, hopefully it will be much easier for other makers to make their printers have great dimensional accuracy utilizing this method.

THE METHOD?
1)Measure your nozzle extrusion of plastic with a caliper
2a)If you want to calibrate the z axis import in your slicer the z axis rectangle file along with the nozzle size
OR
2b)If you want to calibrate the x or y axis, import in your slicer the 60mm test box with accordance to your closest nozzle size.
3) Set your layer height to .2mm layers as these files are designed to utilize specifically this layer height.
4) Slice and print the file
5) Take off of print bed and measure the desired axis in question.
6) go into the excel document
