This is a peg for holding the perimeter wire for a robotic lawn mower. You may end up having just too few of these, so it is nice to be able to make more in a jiffy. If you need many, it makes sense to buy the ready made ones instead.
Designed to print as is, without support. If you want the tips more pointy than the overhang supported by your printer, support is needed.
Precision is not an issue here, so feel free to use as thick layers as your printer will support.
Since you punch these into the dirt, you need a tough material. ABS should be good. PLA will work too, but may not last as long.
The design is parametric, so you can tune how solid and rigid the plugs are.
