Table Leg

thingiverse

This table leg design utilizes printed hubs and 1/2 inch steel tubing for maximum durability. To learn how to build a sturdy table leg, check out this informative video that covers tips, tricks, and strength testing techniques. https://youtu.be/uFDx7dixuJo When creating this table, I deliberately printed all the parts solid to enhance their strength, but encountered significant printing issues with PETG blobbing and stringing. Specifically, the top joint is the most vulnerable area of the leg, so it's highly recommended that this part be printed solidly. The other components can be printed using a higher number of perimeters (I used 8) and 25% infill for added stability. This project was an exciting challenge that provided valuable insights into my new printer's capabilities. It's worth noting that I don't advise using this leg design in situations where high-force impacts are possible, as it may not be able to withstand such stress. Although the design is robust, it can still break under certain conditions. Please note that the part may import at an incorrect scale; I use a 2540% scale setting for optimal results.
