Description
This model recreates a real outdoor basketball hoop in miniature form, turning it into a small playable desktop basketball game with playable mini basketball additions. This model is designed to look like a real outdoor neighborhood basketball hoop, the type with a base that can be filled with sand or water. The proportions are carefully scaled so it looks realistic while still being compact and playable.
Perfect timing for March Madness, this miniature setup lets you shoot your own shots right on your desk.
You can print just the basketball hoop by itself, or you can add additions that expand it into a full mini basketball game.
These additions include:
• Mini basketball court
• Slingshot launcher for shooting the balls
• Mini basketballs
With these additions installed, you can actually launch the basketballs toward the hoop and make real shots with a little practice.
Assembly
The basketball hoop attaches to the court using glue or double-sided foam tape.
The slingshot press-fits into the free throw line if your printer's tolerances are tuned correctly, creating a snug but removable fit.
Print Profiles
Extensive work went into the print profiles and slicing settings to optimize printability, reliability, and material usage.
Multiple plates are included for:
• Basketball hoop
• Mini basketballs
• Court
• Slingshot
The models are lightweight but designed to print cleanly and consistently, with optimized supports and settings already configured in the profiles.
