Post fairing replacement
For common fence railings, there is a recycled pot metal ring that covers the joint between the post and supporting concrete wall/walkway. The metal corrodes with winter salt, but you can't remove the post to install a replacement. This part prints in 2 pieces. Snap out the 2 small wedges used for printing support, place the large part around the post, then push the small piece into the slot. Spray paint the parts before installation, if you need to match other painted trim. A drop of instant-set (CA) glue will hold ABS or PLA in place. Scaled for the common 1 inch or 25 mm square tubing. SCAD file included, if you want to scale or enhance the design. This hosted file keeps creator credit and license details.
