My daughter asked for a Barbie Gymnastics set from Target for her birthday. After purchasing the one she wanted (https://www.target.com/p/barbie-174-careers-gymnastic-coach-dolls-playset/-/A-52607245#lnk=sametab) and realizing how lack-luster it was, I decided I could do better. The result is this Spring Board, a Pommel Horse and a Balance Beam to make a nice DIY playset.

Balance Beam: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2574795
Pommel Horse: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2574942

This is a nice, fairly scale size spring board that goes with the Pommel Horse and is semi functional.

Print Settings

Printer Brand:

Prusa

Printer:

i3 MK2S

Rafts:

No

Supports:

Yes

Resolution:

.20

Infill:

20%

Notes:

I uploaded two versions. The first requires a small amount of support because I chose to make it look more realistic over the ability to print without supports.

The second version (No Supports) should print fine vertically without the need for supports.

Renders show it in two colors but I printed in solid white PLA and plan to paint the pad pink to match my renders. Will update once I get my Multi Material Upgrade if there are changes needed to allow it to print in two colors.
