Tested a print of a muzzle device after calibrating some PLA Pro. The print came out looking great. However, the 1/2x28 threads in the ID are very loose, so much that with minimal force, you can pull straight past them.
So, I’ve seen a few different ways to fix this, but I wanted to see what the community agrees to as the “best” practice to adhere to.
Do I adjust for shrinkage, add in additional tolerance in the modeled threads, or do something else entirely?

From the califlower test, I had a -0.1% skew. Fixed that and adjusted for shrinkage. Just printed another flashider, and it’s much better now. Tight initially, but once worked back and forth, it threads on well. I imagine a tight fit is better than a loose fit.
