Rod R Lamp

The quiet backbone that holds a lamp together. Rather than a shade or a sculptural body, this part is a long, slender vertical rod — a plain round shaft with a small flared cap moulded at the top and another at the foot. It is a structural stem from a lamp build: the kind of spindle that runs up through a base, spaces a shade off the fitting, or links the foot to the socket housing. (Note: the render shows only the bare rod, so this description leans on the title and set it belongs to rather than surface detail.) It suits makers assembling or repairing a printed lamp, or anyone needing a matching riser/connector for a shade project. Worth knowing before you slice: • Print upright for the cleanest round profile, or lay it flat with supports if you need maximum length-wise strength. • Check the shaft diameter and cap size against your hardware, threaded tube or shade ring before committing. • PETG is the safer choice for anything sitting near a bulb's heat; pair it with a cool-running LED bulb only, never a hot incandescent. • A brim helps a tall vertical print stay stuck; slow the first few layers on the narrow base. A humble but essential piece for a tidy, self-printed lamp.
