A relative broke one of the plastic stakes for some Christmas decorations that they had purchased from Aldis years ago. The decoration happened to be a favorite of theirs, and they asked if it would be possible to make a replacement - this one is pretty close.
I printed mine vertically, using a brim for stability, round side down. Not the most idea orientation for strength with this part, but it is fairly strong regardless.
If you print this in PLA, you shouldn't need any supports. The bridge when the print transitions from the round part to the stake is pretty small, and I've made sure there is some structure in place to support it during printing. I had zero issues printing without supports in PLA while designing the model, but when I printed the final version in PETG for outdoors, I had to use an organic support for the internal bridge, otherwise I got a bit of sag at the start of the stake.
