I have no confidence it will work or last. I'm not committing to anything either, but at a minimum I need the flattest image possible, meaning a square lens to object from a distance where perspective distortion is minimized. The largest camera sensor (silicon die) will produce the flattest image with less perspective distortion. Each image must contain a known measurement, such as a little machinist's ruler or other. The point here is that the lines of known measurement must be as close to single pixel accurate as possible. I will not take the time to straiten or correct for errors, - if I have the time and feel like making something. The result will likely be ugly and might not work or last. I need to know the angles and sizes of those protrusions to utilize them like a dovetail. I do not trust anyone's measurements, especially my own, and I have no desire to dial you up for the 'measure thrice print twice, measure once unfinished dunce' - rule. I need the Cartesian planes of X, Y, and Z, (right, front, top) at a minimum.
I probably do not have time within my project, but if I'm bored and waiting on a long print, maybe.
This made me laugh out loud, thank you for that haha - Honestly I was just going to ship it to someone, but all of the feedback is telling me printing is not the right fit for this; thank you for thinking about it!
