Tailored Size Options:

  • Small, Medium, and Long Staples: Choose from three lengths to suit your soil conditions and project requirements. Longer staples, featuring additional notches, provide exceptional grip in softer ground—ideal when maximum hold is essential. Shorter staples are perfect for harder soils, resisting bending and breaking to offer durability and ease of insertion. This range allows you to find the ideal balance between effortless placement and steadfast pull-out resistance.
  • Scalable: If you desire, these should scale easily to either be thicker (scale in Z) or just larger overall (scale them in X+Y+Z) to hold down larger things or with more holding power.

Customized Angle Variations:

  • Slim, Intermediate, and Wide Angles: Fine-tune your anchoring approach with three distinct angle options. Opt for the slim angle in tight spaces or when minimal soil disruption is needed. The intermediate angle offers a balance of penetration and hold, while the wide angle provides maximum surface contact and spring-loading for superior stability. VersaStake adapts to your specific needs, ensuring whatever you're securing stays firmly in place.

Enhanced Grip with Spring-Loaded Notches:

  • Innovative Securement: Gently pinch the staples before inserting them into the ground to "spring-load" the notches. This clever technique increases outward pressure against the soil, allowing the notches to catch more effectively. The result is an anchor that resists pull-out, keeping your installations more secure.
  • Tapered Top: The top is tapered to be wider at the top to aid installation without hurting your fingers and to help the staple avoid getting over-buried and stopping when it's fully embedded.

Ready-to-Print Profiles:

  • Versatile Printing Options: The included print profiles feature plates with one staple of each possible size, allowing you to test and select the perfect anchor for any task. Additionally, I've provided a plate loaded with 16 medium-intermediate size staples, ideal for the most common applications.

Optimal Material Recommendations:

  • Print with PETG or PLA+: For optimal performance, I recommend printing your staples using stiff yet flexible filaments like PETG or PLA+. These materials offer the perfect combination of strength and flexibility, reducing the risk of snapping while ensuring long-lasting durability in outdoor environments. Engineering filaments like PACF/PAHT-CF/PET-CF would also likely be a good choice.

Diverse Use Cases:

  • Securing Drip Irrigation Lines: Keep your irrigation system neatly organized, preventing hoses from shifting or kinking. VersaStake ensures efficient watering by holding lines precisely where you place them.
  • Anchoring Landscaping Fabric: Maintain your weed barriers and erosion control fabrics securely in place. Our staples prevent wind uplift and keep your landscape looking pristine.
  • Holding Down Cabling and Wires: Manage cables and wires in your garden or outdoor workspace. Whether for lighting, electronics, or decorative purposes, VersaStake provides a tidy and safe solution to keep cords grounded and out of the way.
  • Fastening Garden Netting and Covers: Secure protective netting over your plants to guard against pests and birds. Use VersaStake to anchor frost blankets or shade cloths, ensuring your plants are shielded from harsh weather conditions.

very nice design, maybe going to make them a bit shorter and a little thicker, but very happy with the print.
