Blink doorbell camera hood.
Relieved for double sided tape fixing.
There's only so much you can do with a wide angle lens hood. It's just there to try and stop so much rain reaching the lens.
Knocked up in Sketchup of course!

Some bits to speed up setting up honing guides for sharpening (not that it took that long using a simple layout square). The debossed text is rather cryptic, but I know what it means 
Glued together and festooned with rather a lot of magnets:
It gets screwed to a convenient cabinet door and can be used to quickly set the right offset, e.g. setting a Chisel up for a 30° edge in an Eclipse honing guide (hence EC:30°):
The magnets hold the blade in place so you can slide the honing guide on at your leisure:
With the set-up thingies on the left (which set the distance between Tormek support and stone), it can also be used for setting up the Tormek square edge jig (which I mostly use on a medium speed bench grinder with the Tormek bench-grinder mount, hence having two different wheel diameters on there - 200 for the bench grinder and 250 for the Tormek itself):
In case that's not enough honing guides, it works with the Veritas ones too (the number after the V is the Veritas jig position):
I'm currently printing a little rack to store the setting pieces:

A prototype for work. OD 24mm in PLA+ from JAYO. Really pleased with the Ender 3. I had hoped to use the E5 but it keeps losing the X and Y position making it useless.

Parts feel solid. 1st time using a 1mm nozzle. Do I need to increase the extrusion multiplier? Any tips appreciated!

0.5 seems a bit much to ask. I'd be aiming for 0.3 or 0.4 at most. You need to squish those layers!
You will get the speed bump from the line width, not layer height...

Agree but it is quite possible the machine is not capable of delivering the flow rate required at any sensible speed. Reducing the layer height would help without having to revert to a .6 or .8 nozzle which would be my other recommendation.

Would a CHT nozzle be any benefit with the standard hotend?
