A Fret Rocker is a tool to check for uneven fret height on guitar on other string instrument, which causes buzzing issues when you pick your string. The design is based on StewMac's steel Fret Rocker design.
Our Filagain Fret Rocker redesigned StewMac's design specifically for 3D printing proccess by:
- Incorporates large cavity on the middle to minimize material usage; and it turns out the cavity is useful for your finger grip when using it.
- Top and bottom are chamfered to compensate for 'elephant foot' on first few layers of printing due to improper Z offset / first layer height setting.
We also incorporates mm & inch dimension details for each side of the Fret Rocker just to make it pretty.
How to use (it's StewMac video, same principle):

If you want all the texts on the Fret Rocker easily readable, print with nozzle smaller than 0.4mm. Otherwise the text may not be legible enough.
On image we printed using 0.2 nozzle with 0.15 layer height. We have tested printing using 0.4 nozzle and 0.3 layer height, it works the same but just not as pretty.
