Hi, 3d printing a nut guy again. Finally have all the materials and I think enough skill to model this thing on my own.

Exactly what tolerances should I have in the channels of the nut for the strings? Like, for example my low B string is a .59. How large should I make that channel? 1.50mm? A little more room perhaps?

Thanks for any responses!

    Especially with a floating bridge.

    Luckily it’s a string through hard bridge. Ibanez ax7221 (Japanese built version.) I am going to be printing it standing up so that the layers of the print are parallel to the strings to keep it from getting hung up on the winds.
