Description
A two-part 3D-printable system for leveling and anchoring wooden garden border planks. posts, or anything:
tapered cone screw with helical auger flights drives into soil
U-shaped cradle threads onto its top
The two parts locks together with a m16 thread. It should be easy for you to adjust and replace the U-shape with whatever fits your needs as long as you add a m16 male screw to its bottom.
It has two versions of the screw. From my own testing the v6 works best for the type of soil i have in my garden since its very muddy and hard packed. But the larger threads on the v5 should in theory work better with softer soil and give more stability.
Extra parts also included:
A hook that can be used for tying down lines. Such as tent lines. When you need it to be really firmly anchored to the ground. Since it has the m16 it simply replaces the U-Shape.
Instructions/Notes:
Please note that the m16 connection is very low tolerance by design. It will need some force to get screwed in. You might even need something like a screwdriver as leverage. But the idea is that its never supposed to be unscrewed. At least for the applications I've had.
