Tips & Settings:
No special printing requirements or supports needed.
The basket needs to be super glued to the post.
This game can be played with or without a string; both the ball and the board have a hole that can be used to connect the ball to the board using a string. This makes the game a bit easier and prevents the balls from flying too far off the table or getting lost.
If using a string, make sure to make it long enough for the ball to go inside the basket freely. If not, feel free to print multiple balls which can be stored inside the base.
Board Option 1 is more narrow and is therefore slightly stiffer which allows for a more curved trajectory towards the basket. Depending on the material you use to print, you may also find Board Option 2 which is wider to be a better option. You can also simply print and use both as they are easily interchangeable. You can try to print using more walls and infill to make the board/s more stiff if needed.
