About the washers and shims generator
Leveling a cabinet door, adjusting a motor height, taking up play: shims and washers in the right thickness fix it. This generator makes a whole set at once, from one thickness to another, in the step you choose.
Choose round washers or U-shaped shims (which slide under a screw without removing it). Shims have their thickness engraved so you can find the right one.
What you can adjust
Washer or U shim
The shim slides in without removing the screw.
Screw hole
1 to 50 mm.
Engraved thickness
On shims of 1 mm or more.
Ideas for use
- Leveling doors and drawers
- Adjusting a motor or pulley
- Shimming a furniture leg
- Adjusting a 3D printer bed
- Play in mechanical assemblies
How it works
- Choose washer or shim, the hole and the thicknesses (from, to, step).
- Click "Create in the editor": the set opens ready.
- Print it flat, as it is.
How to print
- Material
- PETG or PLA
- Layer height
- A divisor of the thickness (0.1 or 0.2 mm)
- Infill
- 100%
- Supports
- Not needed
- Use a layer height that divides the thickness (e.g. 0.1 mm for 0.5 mm shims).
- Dial in the first layer: it sets the thickness of thin shims.
FAQ
The thickness came out different. Why?
The first layer is often thicker or thinner. Measure and adjust the Z offset, or compensate in the thickness.
Can it take screw tightening?
With 100% infill, yes, for normal tightening. For heavy loads, use a metal washer.
Is it free?
Yes. The maker and the editor are free and run in your browser. Without an account, the project is kept for 48 hours; with a free account, it is kept in your account.
Which format do I download?
3MF (recommended: keeps colors and opens directly in Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer and Creality Print), STL or OBJ, always in millimeters.
