Pickleball, a captivating sport, merges the elements of tennis and ping-pong, resulting in an enjoyable and engaging game. As I was playing pickleball, I began wondering if i could 3D print a paddle to use. I searched MakerWorld and found a few paddles, but they didn't appeal to me. I began the long journey of designing my own paddle.  The design process was difficult, and progress was slow. Designed fully in Tinkercad, creating this model was a challenge. It took numerous tries to achieve the ideal tolerances, but eventually I was satisfied with how the parts fit together.   Fully Functional To ensure the paddle didn't slip out of my hand during gameplay, I wrapped the handle with electrical tape, and it did the trick. I hope you enjoyed this article and thanks for reading!  Here is the link if you want to print it for yourself!

Hey guys, I just wanted to share how I take pictures of my models. After I have designed and printed my model, my next step is taking pictures. I take my pictures with a Nikon D3100 and a fixed 35mm lens. I also use a photography light to brighten up my space. I take most of my pictures on the build plate of my A1. What I Use:Nikon D3100Nikon Fixed 35mm Fixed Lens2X Macro Lens RingPhotography LightThe editing process is simple, then I upload my models to Makerworld! If you have any questions, feel free to ask in the comments!
