Customize-able Golf Ball Marking Stencil

thingiverse

This design leverages an SVG file to precision-cut a customized design directly onto the marker's cover. The marker size can be tailored to fit various golf ball sizes, while the mark's dimensions are also easily adjustable. To create the SVG file, I utilized Inkscape to bitmap-trace a striking silhouette of a turtle, which is now included. To craft the intricate tree supports for the print, I turned to Meshmixer, discovering that its generated supports were far easier to remove than those created by Cura or PrusaSlicer. Once satisfied with the support layout in Meshmixer, I transformed them into a "New solid". The resulting STL file was then exported and imported alongside the original marker design in PrusaSlicer, where they aligned seamlessly together.
