Oculus 2 Putter Attachment

thingiverse

I play Walkabout Mini Golf and I was having trouble getting a consistent swing; the controller does not have the pendulum swing of a golf club. All the club accessories I can find attach to the controller handle, which don't allow access to the buttons, and the length & weight can't be adjusted. I decided to create an attachment that keeps the controller in my hand and allows adjusting the club length and weight. Do NOT use this for a full golf swing. It was not designed for that. This is a two-part print. The __Controller Mount__ clips to either the right or left controller. The __Club Handle__ has a standard broom thread (ACME 3/4 5tpi) that allows screwing in whatever length handle you desire. Weights can be added to the end of the handle if needed. I have created an adapter to add weights to similar devices before, make a request and I add the STL to this project. I must have the diameter of your club. You could also adapt a real putter. The two parts must be glued together before using. I started to index the parts so they would always align the same but then I realized this may be different for some people. To assemble: 1. Screw a broom handle into the handle part. You should cut to approximately the correct length at this time. 2. Clip the mount part into your Oculus controller. the curve of the part must match the curve of the controller. 3. Hold everything together in your normal putting grip, turning the broom so it points to the ground. 4. Mark on the handle part where the controller part tab aligns. (see image above) 5. Take everything apart and put tape on the handle part to hold together while gluing. 6. Using epoxy, CA, or your glue of choice apply to one part, squeeze together and tape so it won't come apart. 7. Let it dry, 8. Screw the broom handle and clip to the controller. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shGqTH69Y7g
