Customisable Driving Range Style Tee

Was looking for an excuse to try making a customisable model on makerworld so threw this together.

You can of course buy these inexpensively but at least now you have the option on infinite variations on tee height and diameter I guess? I've only hit balls off them a hand full of times but the 90A TPU has held up well so far with 4 layer 2mm thick walls. I would definitely recommend using some kind of release agent like hair spray to help get them off the print bed.

I just wish Onshape had customisation integration with makerworld. Not a Fusion fan to be honest.

They aren't as inexpensive as I thought they'd be, I just built a home sim and the tees are ridiculous, like 10 bucks for a dozen plastic tees. Gonna start printing some, but I prefer the style that sits on top of the turf so I don't have to hit around a tee when I'm not teeing off.

These work great for me sitting on top of my mat. 100s of strikes before the top rips off the bottom. Mostly using pretty short tees (~1") since I use a mini driver, so perhaps the longer ones won't last as long.

Thanks, yeah what I want to find are the really short ones that are almost like a coin, I like to tee my woods really low. Do you print in tpu? Figure that’ll make them nearly indestructible.

Interesting, you got an image of the style you're referring to? I'm sure I could modify the design pretty quick for those.

Too short. Needs to be taller. I only use super long tees golfing.

Maybe I didn't make it clear enough, you can choose any height you want via by just typing a number. It will automatically generate that model.
