Over-engineered Golf Tee

When I would play golf my tee would always go flying so I designed a tee that stays in the ground very good with threads. It can tilt at a 13-degree angle! vs a normal one can only tilt at an 8-degree angle 😲. It is adjustable with a nut so every time it is the same height.

• Snippers
• Sandpaper
• Calipers
• Flathead screwdriver

First download Autodesk fusion 360 then you are all set.

1. Create a back view sketch.
2. Create a line 50mm in height.
3. At the bottom of the 50mm create a line on the x axis that is 5mm to the left.
4. Create a line 44mm high at the end of the 5mm.
5. Create a line on the 44mm diagonal left thru half of one of the grid cubes(look at the picture)
6. Create a 10mm line connecting the golf tee.
7. Finish the sketch

1. Click create in the top left corner then revolve.
2. Select the sketch.
3. For the axis select the z axis.
4. Angle 360.0 deg.
5. Direction one side.

1. Create a back view sketch.
2. Start with a 4mm line across the y axis.
3. At the bottom of that line do another 4mm line on the x axis. look at the picture.
4. Create a left diagonal line spaced evenly up that is 5.657mm.
5. Then 8mm line connecting them.
6. Finish the sketch.

1. Click revolve in create.
2. Select the sketch.
3. Z axis
4. 360.0 deg
5. Operation cut

1. Sketch a 17mm line on the y axis under the plane.
2. Then a 17.464mm line back up diagonal to the left.
3. Connect them with a line at 3.99mm.
4. Finish sketch.

1. Select revolve in create.
2. Select the sketch.
3. Z axis.
4. 360.0 deg.
5. Operation join.

1. Click create in the top left corner then thread.
2. Select the the long cylinder.
3. Select modeled and full length make sure you have a check mark.
4. Thread type ISO metric trapezoidal threads.
5. Designation TR10x2.
6. Direction right hand.

1. Create a center diameter circle 10mm next to the tee.
2. Click create then polygon circumscribed polygon start in the center then enter 10mm.
3. Finish sketch.

1. Hit the e key for extrude select the sketch of the nut.
2. Extrude to 8mm.

1. Thread the nut with Thread type ISO metric trapezoidal threads with modeled and full length.
2. Size 12mm
3. Designation TR12x2.
4. Direction right hand.

1. Add a 1mm chamfer to the nut.
2. Add a 1mm fillet to tee

Go to file then export STL.

Print the tee with supports on its side 20% infill

Print the nut with no supports(yes this matters) 20% infill.

1. Filament PLA or ABS.
2. 20% infill.
3. The nut is 15 minutes and the tee is 50 minutes.

Start at the tip then with your snippers start taking the supports off.

On the thread if you have some PLA between the each gap(don't panic) just sand it down till it is all gone.

Use a screwdriver to get the rest of the PLA out.

Make sure your body is 10mm.

Hope this was helpful.
