Fun game to play with friends! Simply pull down the compression spring and release to shoot the ping pong ball. The distance varies of course on how far down you pull the spring, but I would guess it can reach up to something like 15 meters.
You can use a normal ping pong ball or print one, I used this model and it works great! :) https://www.printables.com/model/818937-airless-ping-pong-ball-20
Either use M2,5 screws to secure the parts or some good superglue.
Printing instructions:
Frame
Orientation: "Catching" side down
Fillament: Whatever fillament you want since it doesnt really have to be super durable, but i recommend normal PLA since it is easy to print and looks great!
Infill: 15%
Layerhight: 0,15mm
Supports: No
Brim: I recommend using a brim since the contace surface is not that big.
Spring
Orientation: The side with the handle down
Fillament: PETG, since it has good flexibility (maybe PLA or other fillaments also could work)
Infill: 100%
Layerhight: 0,15mm
Supports: Yes. Support are needed, I recommend using the automatic tree supports since they are easier to remove. Support angle treshhold should be at 35% and use the "supports on buildplate only" setting so you only get supports for the spiral part.
Brim: No
