Is the test block over sized by the same amount if you measure one block or 4? Or is it always over sized by the same amount?
This will tell you if the scale is wrong or if the oversize is just that the skin is thicker and more rough than it should be. There should be a constant AND a multiplier. The best analysis method is to enter the measurements into Excel and let it make a plot and have it do a least-squares fit of a line to the plot. The slope of the line is the multiplier. Most people do have to clean up their prints with a file or sand paper to get the bumps off. I'd measure after a quick sanding job Usually the first stuff that people print with their new printer iis upgrades to the printer. Usually things like hold down clamps and corner braces to make the printer more rigid. The best improvement I did was screw the printer down to a work table, just 4 small wood screws.
