Quite simply, this is a hat stand designed to resemble a pylon.

Firstly, this model demonstrates just how impressive 3D printers are, by being able to create clean, useful, and relatively strong designed effortlessly. Although each column is weak alone, even a plastic pylon can hold a considerable amount of weight by the columns working together intelligently.

This is also a great way to test a printer's bridging. I had no problems fully disabling supports and I would strongly recommend that others do the same. Although the first bridged layer may be shakey, it corrects pretty quickly.

Quickly NB!
- No rafts - My columns did not really stick to the raft as the contact area is so small, thus rafts are really unhelpful here.
- A Brim is better. Even just 5 or 6, a brim is not just helpful but necessary.
- Sizes can be changed. I found the uploaded sizes worked for me, but make it your own!
- Probably go a little slowly. I left mine at 20m.S-1 with 0.24 Nozzle
- No suppo
