Emergency Caution Cone

thingiverse

This roadside emergency tool alerts oncoming drivers that you are stranded. It measures 148 x 139.91 x 73 mm (L,W,H). The file is in .stl format, which requires conversion to g code for printing. I will post a G-code file once I find the right filament and settings. For maximum visibility, print this tool in bright colors like neon reds, yellows, or oranges. Hiding it with a hollow interior will make it less durable, but at 20% infill, it's already robust enough to withstand moderate impacts. However, it won't survive being hit by a speeding vehicle. Print at any layer height you prefer and use common sense for support structures. After printing, lightly sand the surface for added durability. To increase its noticeability, you can purchase reflective tape and attach it to the recessed holes at the top, sides, and angled reflector towards the bottom. Enjoy!
