Working Pickleball Paddle

Boost MeHelp me make a v2! Better power, speed, and interchangeable paddle designs?

This ain't your grandma’s pickleball paddle—this is a fully 3D-printed beast built for power, style, and flex.

 

Sleek, sci-fi inspired aesthetic makes sure you stand out on the court! Print in any combination of colors!

 

Designed from the ground up, this paddle features a modular, pressure-fit handle grip that snaps into place with no glue needed (just some brute force or a mallet if you're feelin’ dramatic). 

 

The paddle face? Rigid. Clean. Like it's straight out of a sci-fi sports anime. Some minor glue holds the paddle layers together, but the whole thing is designed to be battle-ready from your printer to the court.

 

Battle tested against real paddles! Worked like a charm without a single crack or break.

Hey, I even won!

 

Good idea to print with something rigid, like PLA+, or PETG. I actually used PLA Metal for some of the pieces, and it worked super well!

Assembly Instructions:

1. Push the grip onto the handle and push down with your hands. 
2. Grab a hammer or mallet and hit the top of the handle until it seats all the way. (Or starts cracking, which is ok. This part will be hidden anyway)
3. Now layer superglue on the thin parts of the handle (not the grip)
4. Slide the paddle on and let it dry
5. Go kick some ass
