The file 'Adjustable Flag Pole 3D Printer Model' is (stl) file type, size is 566.8KB.
Materials Used:
I made this for the Israeli independence day.
The flag is held from three 3D printed rings by zip ties (“flag_zip_tie_ring.stl”), and can be replaced easy or lowered down to “half mast” on memorial days and as a symbol of respect, mourning and distress.
“top_pulleysystem+IL_Flag.stl”-
If you want a (different) flag on the top pulley system like in “top_pulleysystem+IL_Flag.stl”, find a CLEAR photo of it, convert to an svg file (I use https://convertio.co/jpg-svg/), go into your CAD modelling software (I use tinkercad (https://www.tinkercad.com/)) and upload it, make it 1.25mm thick and 0.25mm into the model, make sure to keep the ratio correct (search for it in google, mine was 2:3); if your flag has more then 2 colours, cut the flag into colour groups and shift the layers accordingly. Use the colour change function in your slicer. make sure to block support material on any corner as long as its not essential.
"bottom pully systemV3tightingboldadd.stl" -
This allows you to tighten the bottom pulley without making it permanent or drilling into the broomstick, you will need to stop the print at the layer that closes the hole for the M4 nut (for me it is layer num. 48 at 0.3mm resolution), I have NOT tested it yet (the 29th of Apr.23), so let me know if you have and how did it work out.
"mount to wall.stl"-
You do not have to use all ten (10) holes, four (4) is more then enough, although make sure you are doing in an x form, meaning if you screw in the topmost left hole do the bottommost right hole (these two should be more then sturdy). If you have an extra rough weather then you might want to consider printing it from stronger, more durable material like ABS for a warmer climate and PETG for a cooler climate. Over all, for extra durability, print all parts from white PETG, as it will heat up less, and will be stronger in winds and rain.
NOTES:
GOOD LUCK! And HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY!!
