Printed Top Patio Table

_______________________________________________

About:

This patio table measures roughly 12" (300mm) square at the top. The top is printed in 4 triangular pieces. The base is printed in 2" tall segments to whatever height you like. Print an entire table using only 1 kg of filament.

I will be posting the same table but with holders for an acrylic top. The base from this one will work with that one if you want to try it when posted.

Steps To Print:

1. Both the bases and tops have tight fit and loose fit versions
   1. only the pegs change diameter, the holes stay the same size
   2. the tight fit versions will not come undone
   3. if you want to be able to take it apart choose the loose fit versions
2. Start with the base and print each layer, which will dovetail together
3. Slide the dovetails together
4. Rotate the next layer 90 degrees and align pegs with the holes and press firmly if it is the tight fit version
5. Repeat until you have the height you desire
6. I think the tops are best printed without top or bottom layers so the infill pattern shows
   1. use 7 wall loops so that the pegs will be as strong as possible
7. The top is printed in 4 triangular pieces and snaps into place on the base
   1. Top may feel loose until all 4 sections are in place
8. Mix and match colors, infill pattern, and cup holder segments for the top
   1. choose the loose fit top if you want to try various styles
9. The “Bottom Cup Holder Support” goes one layer below the cup hole to give a solid surface for the cup to rest
