The first single layer test to see what the rough line spacing and power output should be. the first multi layer test is done by using a anet A8 with a diode laser mounted. The powder layer is made manually layer by layer using feeler gauges with layer heights of 0.05mm each. The total amount of layers was 40 layers giving a metal cube of 10x10x2mm.
