Description
My cousin requested a full-size fire hydrant to stake in his back yard for his dog to make use of. I based my design off an actual fire hydrant, while simplifying some details to make printing easier.
V1 (free version):
In Version 1, I have printed and fitted the parts at 1:12 scale (50%). Superglue is recommended unless you want a prop that can pop apart easily. Future plans will add a twist lock to access the opening for dog poo bags at full scale.
Scale:
Current scale is 1:6. If you want full-size set size to 500% to reach 29.5" height ( 750mm ).
Supports:
Supports may be needed on the main trunk with 5 openings. Just paint supports under the 3 horizontal openings. Depending on scale and layer height, supports may be unnecessary.
