Minimalist Garden Stake - Repeatable, Extendable, Low Filament

prusaprinters

<p>This is a simple, minimalist garden stake that won't take a lot of time or filament to print.</p><p>Any size you choose repeats easily, so you can reprint as your plants grow: simply reprint that size as needed and slot the peg into the end of the previously printed stake.</p><p>I've created two overall thicknesses, each with two different tolerances for the peg; “loose” files give a 1.5 mm tolerance for the peg to fit, and “tight” give 1 mm. Just pick the thickness you need and the tolerance your printer can handle:</p><ul><li>10-3.5: 10 mm stake, 3.5mm peg (loose)</li><li>10-4: 10 mm stake, 4mm peg (tight)</li><li>15-6.5: 15 mm stake, &nbsp;6.5 mm peg (loose)</li><li>15-7: 15 mm stake, 7 mm peg (tight</li></ul><p>I recommend adding glue in any case to make it stronger. This is my own simple design, and I'm still new at this, so please let me know if there is something I can do to make it better/easier.</p><p>UPDATE: the thinner stakes absolutely need glue if you live in a high-wind area or they will separate too easily. For now I recommend the thicker model, but I’ll try to improve the design.&nbsp;</p>
