Commanding and majestic, the Lion Head Cane Handle features a detailed sculpt of a roaring lion — symbol of courage, leadership, and noble power. Designed to top a walking cane or staff, this handle is ideal for fantasy kings, steampunk adventurers, enchanted beasts, or aristocratic characters. Whether carried in costume or displayed on a stand, it brings a regal finish to any build.

📏 Measuring Instructions To scale for use as a cane or staff topper:

Grip Size: Measure the diameter of your cane shaft (common: 22–25 mm) Handle Width: Default is palm-sized (60–90 mm across); adjust for comfort or aesthetics Insert Socket (Optional): Check if the model includes a hollow or peg base for mounting

🛠️ Scale uniformly in your slicer to match your cane size and desired visual weight. If model is solid, drill or modify to fit your chosen staff or walking stick.

🖨️ Printing Instructions Recommended Settings:

Layer Height: 0.12–0.2 mm (FDM); 0.05–0.1 mm (resin for finer detail)
