thanks everyone for pointing out the obvious of how to test the calibration i was more or less asking if its normal for PA6 to shrink more than PLA +


I printed some dimensional blocks and got the exact opposite results i was expecting. The pla+ block came out slightly smaller than the set dimensions and the pa6-cf block was actually slightly larger than the set dimensions.
How do i address this. I guess it could make some sense as its the openings in the prints that are too small so the pa6-cf test print being larger could mean that the negative space is being taken up by this but if i scale the print larger to increase the hole sizes then the rest of the print will be too big.
