We present a 1:3 scale model of the LINC-NIRVANA interferometer. This laboratory Fizeau, or image plane, interferometer allows us to test many aspects of LINC-NIRVANA before the final instrument is integrated. We have used this testbed interferometer to practice alignment procedures, verify the optical design, show that point spread functions with low (10%) Strehl ratio can maintain high fringe contrast, and test the fringe tracking algorithm by running the interferometer in a closed piston loop.
