Garden Solar Light Stake

thingiverse

My ALDI solar garden light was hit when my yardwork was getting done. These are no longer sold, and I needed to replace it so I quickly sketched one up in TinkerCad. This is meant to be printed at between 200 and 300 micron ( .2-.3mm ) and you should use somewhere between 30% and 60% infill. Two perimeters should be sufficient to make the spike solid. I recommend using a .4 -> 1.0 mm nozzle. More plastic is better as this has to survive in the ground and you may be stomping on it or hitting it with a mallet to put it into the ground. Finally, I recommend using PLA or PETG to print this item. ABS has a tendency to warp and come off the print bed. Definitely use a brim when printing. If you need different dimensions -- the original is on TinkerCad https://www.tinkercad.com/things/epytjupJfD0-garden-light-spike
