I'd advise making the Putting Green 1 to be more universal for desks/tables. It only mounts on very thin tables and desks as it is now. The ball return spout gets in the way of most table edges.
Yeah, but why not make it at least fit the average desk? I have the super common Ikea desk top and it is around 35mm thick. I absolutely love all of your products. I just got a little bummed about this one not fitting any of the table tops in my house.
i shrunk it to fit my 220 mm bed i scaled to 216 mm and it still takes a 1/4 inch ball :) hope this helps , fyi your bed has to be perfect level as the print will cover the entire bed !
you desperately need to add a small dimple as a "tee" the ball rolls away as soon as I try to hit it. very frustrating as i would like to sell these. also a model of the tee box that sits on the desk would be great, no need for a mount. a simple slice would work well
Hi, Thank you for the feedback! The slot I have for inserting a magnet, should hold the ball in place as long as you are using the materials I have suggested and linked in the description. As for the mount, it is designed like that so the ball return has somewhere to return the ball to.
Hi, Some of the games should work for an A1 Mini but for games like this one, it would make the game too small to work well. All of my designs can print on a regular A1 or larger printer.
Thanks for a great design! I modified it to use a table top ball return. Used an ATTiny85 with a servo and an auto-on/off circuit to make the ball come back on top of the table.
I also modified the putter mount to allow you to place it anywhere you want on the table.

Do I need to print the table-top model using SUPPORT for the return tube? I'm using an older printer with a bad support algorithm (2014 CubePro Trio) that makes it really messy to hack out all the support material after the print.
Love the design. Do we need to use support for the Universal green or does your matrix structure work okay without the support. Not sure how I'd get all the suport out of the return channel when it goes underneath the left edge. Thanks!
So I found the unversal doesn't work as well because of the ramp up. I'm printing the standard flat green. Just confirming I need support for that one. Does the support material for the return hole come out okay?

We added a universal green for that reason!

Can someone help me with the place where you shoot the ball. I dont really understand how to print that
Please use the Easy Print 3mf file! It has all the print settings ready for you
What printer did you all use to print this? Mine is too small to fit the green.

I use Bambu x1c's for all my designs

is there a version where you dont have to mount the putter the table? Maybe just one that sits on top of the table?
Not currently. This is the only version I have at the moment
Please make an a1 mini version for all of the desktop mini games

Hi there:

Any suggestions you can make are appreciated.

You dont need any support for the tabletop version. Your printer should be able to bridge the gaps just fine
how much filament for the ramp version
The universal putting green will use around 340g of filament
can you make the putter shaft stronger? it keeps breaking
sounds like a filament problem . is it old or has it soaked up alot of humidity ? if so you may need to print in a stronger material like petg .
Love the design. Do we need to use support for the Universal green or does your matrix structure work okay without the support. Not sure how I'd get all the suport out of the return channel when it goes underneath the left edge. Thanks!
No Supports needed for the universal green!
So I found the unversal doesn't work as well because of the ramp up. I'm printing the standard flat green. Just confirming I need support for that one. Does the support material for the return hole come out okay?
Thank you
Gord
Thanks kindly! Printing it today!
Too small to print green on ender pro 3 :(
In the video there are nuts attached to the screws but they are not a part of the downloads? Where can I find them?
Did you ever get a response to this? Iām curious too.
The nut was removed from the screw in the uploaded version. The nut caused an issue with the ball ejector
