Cutting the dimples

The golf ball has 109 dimples, and each is a hole to weed. At the 100 mm size of the file the dimples in the middle are about 6.5 mm across and the smallest ones at the edge are slim ovals. In vinyl, keep the ball at 80 mm or more, or the edge dimples become too small to pick out. On a laser the ball engraves well at any size: set the dimples to engrave and the circle to cut.

For a small ball, use the ball on a tee or the crossed clubs, where the ball has fewer and larger dimples for its size.

Clubs and other thin parts

A club is a long thin thing, and the shafts here are 3 to 4 mm wide when the club is 100 mm long. That is fine in vinyl and card. In wood or acrylic, cut the clubs at 150 mm or longer, or choose the crossed clubs, where the two shafts brace each other and the ball ties them together.

How to open the files

• Cricut Design Space: choose Upload, pick the SVG, and add it to the canvas. Set the width you want; the shape is already welded.
• Silhouette Studio: Designer Edition and above open the SVG. The free Basic Edition does not, so open the DXF instead.
• LightBurn, xTool Creative Space and Glowforge: import the SVG, then set the layer to cut, score or engrave.
• Inkscape, Illustrator and Affinity: open the SVG. It is a plain filled path, so you can recolour it, add a stroke or combine it with your own work.
• Printing or sublimation: use the PNG, which has a transparent background.

Each design page lists the file’s narrowest part at seven sizes, so you can tell whether it will survive at the size you plan to cut.
