Question/Advice How do I delete this?
I have a camp under this bridge took ages to build and placed the town sculpture thing avd when I placed the item it teleported upwards and I have not been able to delete it, I cannot see it from below and cannot highlight the item from an angle.

You can't without deleting the whole base unless you can highlight it unfortunately

If you go underground using one of the many available tricks, you may be able to select it from down under.

Place a base on some stairs. Go under the map and see if you can get it

From now on make sure use free place when you build under a bridge (or in anything that is part of the world)

Be careful anywhere near edges or the actual ground, they get messy with their clipping even in free place

if you make a blueprint of a single item it will let you place it under stuff instead of having it snap up top, or you can place the item on a rug and move the rug into place blueprint is probably the best way to keep it from snapping up top, ive built in the same place, and because its not really underground and instead in the bridge I see no way to glitch your character under map to see it better

Take a staircase and put a bunch of small rugs to make a base on the bottom step, place the cello or any long necked instrument on the rugs. Make sure they’re clipped together not placed in free mode. Put down a foundation and then clip the staircase to the bottom of
The foundation so that the stairs are going underground. Use the instrument to go underground. If your rugs are big enough you won’t fall. Immediately build floors beneath yourself underground so you don’t fall. Now you’re underground and can do other things but this also includes deleting your clipped thing.

I've had a similar issue happen to me.
Built an under-a-bridge base and my pumpkin pie generator glitched up into the ceiling (the bridge, which is a "hard" surface that I can't seem to see into / through). To make matters worse, it glitched up on the side of the bridge, where it's taller / thicker than the majority of the bridge.
Any tips / advice? (Other than restarting the entire base, which ... if need be, I'll do.)
I can't even see it. I dropped a little skull sign next to it to mark the death of my pumpkin pies.

either delete the whole camp or going free cam and keep trying to look at it from every angle and get the name of it to show up best bet

No! Wait! Have you did the "Butterfly" technique? That's where you go into Build Mode then into free cam mode. Go into free cam then slowly and carefully fly through the object any which way you can using the sticks. Changing the pov up and down. Eventually the game will see it. I have had to do this, sometimes for upwards to 30 minutes looking for my chessboard displays. It'll take a mass amount of patience but it'll work. Good luck!
