[3D Printing] 3D printing test files?

Smith,

The license would allow us to include a copy in the ippsample repository:

    http://www.3dbenchy.com/license/

The STL file is 11mb but the 3MF file (more important for us I think) is only 3MB, so that might be OK to embed for testing purposes.  But either way we'll want to provide a link to the source...

But I was wondering if there were 3D files or 3D models that were actually useful for testing and assessing the fidelity of 3D printers print resolution or accuracy? A simple example of this might be a ruler, where if it printed it out, you could compare it's hashmarks against those on a conventional ruler, and see whether the scale was correct.
