Rattlesnake Topper ($7 Cane/Walking Hiking Sticks) Thingiverse won't let me designate the source files any longer, so to give credit: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2759664 https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4839997 I have included a Complete file that will require a lot of supports. I also included Left/Right files that also require less supports and easier cleanup if you want to glue them together. If you want to make a taller stick/staff, grab my 1" cane coupler from here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3810485 Also, check out my 1" wall mount clips for displaying your canes/sticks: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3845550 You can make an awesome solid oak cane / walking stick for about $7. In addition to the printed topper of your choice you will need a 1” oak dowel which costs about $6 at Home Depot and a 1” rubber leg tip – about $4 for 4 of them. Links below are just for your reference so you know what to buy: 1” Oak Dowel: https://www.homedepot.com/p/Builder-s-Choice-1-in-x-36-in-Oak-Round-Dowel-HDDO136/206184686 1” Leg Tip: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000QD30TE Or, if you want to print your own tip, you can customize one here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4116507 The topper .stl file is sized for the 1” dowel if printed at 100%. If you want to use for a different size stick – just adjust accordingly. I have included the sizing-ring.stl (a small cross-section of the 1" topper) for this. It is a quick print to get the correct percentage adjustment if you are trying to size to a different pole/cane size. I print at 20% infill and then paint and coat with a 2-part epoxy resin to add the deep gloss and strength. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BM9LHRB Just print the topper, glue to the finished dowel (sand and clear coat)with desired adhesive (I just use some of the 2-part resin I have mixed up for the final topper coat. You will end up with an awesome walking stick – or more if you are into collecting as I will be doing a lot of these. If you like this remix, check out the original models listed in the left sidebar.
