Mini Tennis Racket Charm
If you ever wanted a tennis racket charm for your backpack, bag or everything else, this is for you!🎾 The mini racket is easy to print in little time (~10mins) and can be customised however you want.
Be creative! You can combine any color or even paint the racket to match your real one.
To give it a proper feel, you can use a real overgrip to add a grip tape to the racket. See the assembly guide for more information.
Tip: If you replace the grip tape of your racket, often small pieces are left over - this is great for using them for the mini rackets. I collect them every time i change mine.
If you have any suggestions or issues, let me know! I hope you like the mini racket :) Feel free to share some pictures of your own creations!
Printing Guide
The racket itself is easily printed in PLA. To get proper results with the stringing of the racket, reduce the speed for printing bridges and overextrude them. I had good results with ~15-20% overextrusion for bridges.
Assembly
Use the racket as is or improve it further by adding an overgrip tape. Cut the tape into small strips with scissors. Apply a small drop of super glue to the base of the grip and glue the end of the tape onto it. Wrap the tape around the grip and secure it with another drop of glue. To make it look even more realistic, take a small strip of electrical tape and wrap it around the top of the racket grip.
To attach the racket to your bag, backpack, zipper etc. you can basically use any key chain type you want. Just fix the end to the center of the frame. I prefer to use the ones with a small loop of string.
