Description

A telephone pole designed specifically for an HO scale model railroading layout.  The STL file contains dimensions of a full 1:1 scale telephone pole so if you utilize that file for printing, the file will need scaled down to 1.16% when imported into Bambu Studio for HO scale sizing.

 

My best success with printing this model was with printing it with the top on the build plate and with the support painting higher on the main post.  Without this support, there is a higher chance of the print to fail due to the main post moving slightly more when printing that high.  The image below shows this setup. (Image is from 6 cross arm version).

 

When removing supports, the best way is to remove the supports at the cross arms.  Once all of those supports are removed, the pole should then be able to slide out of the supports that were used at the middle of the pole.  If you find that this is difficult to remove, you can increase the xy support distance slightly to help with this.
