I just had an idea. What do you think about adding some holes and a pause mid print to put some magnets in? That would make it easier to mount and way more portable.
Great point. How about an over the door hook/hanger attachment? It could lock in or hook onto the screw hanger holes, then go up the back of the backboard and hook over a door. Kind of like the "S" shaped hooks for towels and stuff.
Hi! we include the 3mf in the download which, when opened in a slicer like Bambu Studio, gives you access to the stl files along with all of our recommended settings.

Not a bad Idea! but those would have to be some serious magnets, to hold all of the weight of the hoop and stay when the ball is tossed.

This is so fantastic, thank you for this one! I'll probably do them in local colors for craft fairs, I bet they'll sell!
Also a great way to pass the time!

how do you get the stl file?

does PLA work for the net? How many grams for the 2 pieces?
yes we used PLA for the net and backboard. The net uses about 72g of filament and the backboard uses about 143g
How big is this? Will it print on A1 Mini?
Hi, This will not fit on an A1 mini It will fit on a full size A1 or larger printer
does this model only come with the easy print file?
Yes we only have the Easy Print for this model but you can always export it as an stl if you need that version for any reason.
Can you make a narrower version of the backboard that would fit on a smaller build plate without having to scale down the hoop/net piece?
Thanks for the suggestion. The size is an important part of the design so right now we don't have plans to make a smaller one
