These toppers can be remixed into finished sticks. For about $7, create a solid oak cane/walking stick by combining the printed topper of your choice with a 1” oak dowel ($6 at Home Depot) and 4 x 1” rubber leg tips ($4). For reference, see these links: 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 The topper .stl file is designed for a 1” dowel printed at 100% scale. Adjust the size if using a different stick. Printing at 20% infill and coating with a 2-part epoxy resin adds depth, gloss, and strength (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BM9LHRB). Simply print the topper, glue it to the finished dowel using an adhesive of your choice (I use mixed-up 2-part resin). Resulting in an impressive walking stick or a collectible item.
