    3D Printable Golf Ball Collector and Dispenser

    I came across this online and thought I would share. Watch the reddit video and you will understand what it is for and why it might be of use to this community.

    It's a 3D Printable ball collector with dispenser you can trigger with your club.

    It's similar to some commercial products out there, but if you have a 3D printer and some PVC pipe you can try this out.

    Here is a link to the the model files and also to a video of it in action.

    Golf Ball Collector and Dispenserhttps://www.reddit.com/r/functionalprint/comments/kdaile/golf_ball_picker_and_dispenser_uses_pvc_tube/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3Use a 30" long piece of 2" SCH 40 PVC pipe for the body. (Acetone removes the markings nicely. Nail polish is too weak.)Print the fingers on their side, they don't overhang too much and this gives them the strength they need from the print direction. I used 3/32" TIG rod as the hinge, you should be able to use a piece of coat hanger wire instead. Enjoy! Please share photos if you do build one!

    It is going to take hours to print on my printer, but I am giving it a try.
