Description

I lost a couple height-setting spacers one day when the nut that holds them came loose and the bolt dropped out. Rather than pay for new ones, I slapped this together. They hold up for around 1 season of mowing (7 or 8 months) before they break down enough to require replacing. Adding a fender washer to the top (and even bottom) would drastically improve their lifespan.

Materials and methods

The spacer is a simple cylinder and the sleeve isn't complex either, so supports aren't needed and resolution is irrelevant. These are work pieces, not show pieces.

I opted for 50% infill to ensure the piece was strong enough to hold up over several months of jostling while mowing a few acres each week.
