Printbed Scraper — Small Size (S40)

🧩 Design Concept

A compact printbed scraper sized S40 for quick, precise cleanup. Comfortable to hold and material-efficient, with a chamfered bottom on the handle side so the tool pops off the build plate easily after printing.

Also works well as a plastic scraper/spatula for everyday tasks and DIY projects where a metal tool would be too harsh.

🖨️ Printing Tips

Orientation: Flat on the bed, handle up.

Supports: Not required.

Adhesion: PEI (smooth or textured); a light glue stick if needed.

Post-print: Lightly deburr the working edge for a cleaner feel.

🛠️ Recommended Settings

Material: PETG or ABS for durability. (PLA is possible but will wear faster.)

First layer: 0.24 mm

Next layers: 0.12 mm (smoother finish & a touch more flex) – 0.20 mm (faster print, more stiffness)

Walls / perimeters: 5

Bottom layers: 5

Infill: ~20% (Gyroid)

Top/Bottom pattern: Concentric

Perimeter generator: Arachne walls engine (if your slicer supports it)

Optional: enable ironing on the topmost surface for a crisper finish

🧰 Use & Care

Work at a low angle with gentle pressure on PEI to avoid gouging.

For very stubborn parts, prefer PETG/ABS and keep 5 perimeters for stiffness — or check my other upload: “Set of printbed scrapers and spatulas” with reinforced tough-edge variants.
