The solid color piece of skirt was 14/1000 of an inch, the translucent was 9/1000th of an inch. Both printed with the same settings on the printer of .5mm nozzle width 100% flow. 200C temp. | |

I had measured it with a micrometer, that's how I proved to myself I wasn't seeing things, but I didn't write down the numbers. will do that when I get a chance. | |
