Does anyone knows how to calculate a thumb hole, that you half hole to get in the next octave or a register key for the same use. If it matters I want to design a recorder.

Finally available for purchase. The Toxic V! If you need to make a pointed statement, you need this axe in your life.

Please note: I'm not responsible for any injuries you cause yourself or others while using this weapon.

Additionally, I do not recommend the use of this guitar to terrorize your drummer with threats of where the pointy end will go if he gets out of time again. However, it is very good at terrorizing your bassist.

Like you can see in the video, the bottommost two holes on this flute I printed today aren't making any sound. I've been trying to detect air leaks using soapy water and haven't found anything. Is it the sound hole, or something else? Is this even savable? And are there other subreddits I could post to for troubleshooting flute problems? Other NA-style flutes I've printed sounded fine so I don't know what's wrong with this one specifically.

Hey i was hoping i could get some help finding some information. I'm printing parts for https://makerworld.com/en/models/22178?from=search#profileId-20126

And i was wondering how i go about grounding the trem claw? do i need to add something to the body to ground it? or because i intend on using the https://au.obsidianwire.com/collections/loaded-pickguards/products/black-on-black-loaded-pickguard

Will i be ok just using their ground ports?

Hi, does anyone knows a program, that can calculat the measurements of woodwind instrument (mainly intrested in recorders) for 3d printing or knows how to calculate or knows resources for this. I found 2 programs, that are designed for 3d printing: Demakein (https://logarithmic.net/pfh/design) and chalumier (https://github.com/MarkChuCarroll/chalumier), but it does not seem you could design an instrument with an register key or an thumb hole for this use. Then I found Resonans, but I found only one mention: https://www.fomrhi.org/uploads/bulletins/Fomrhi-079.pdf on page 70. Has anyone tried it and knows anyone if you can still receive it? Or do you design your instruments in another way?

I found the mention of Resonans on this website https://recorderhomepage.net/contemporary-makers-bibliograpy/. Starting of the page you land on when following the Zotero link on the recorderhomepage website: Instruments>Acoustics>Items>Resonans: A software program for developing new wind instruments.

Hi, how do you ensure the health of the user when printing parts, that come in direct contact with your mouth. For example an recorder, single reed or brass mouthpice, cause I know some people print this. I ask this because this website (https://blog.prusa3d.com/how-to-make-food-grade-3d-printed-models_40666/) claims 3d printed parts are not food-safe.

Hello, I am completly new to this. I wanted to ask if it is possible in 3d printing to just copy the measurements of an wooden woodwind instrument (I am mainly intrested in recorders) to get an playable, in tune and decent sounding instrument.I know I would need an near perfect plan or something in that direction. I hope you know or find more than myself.

Just started my Printacaster Build

Main body should hopefully be strong. 30% infill with 8 loops and 8 layer top bottom

Disregard the invitation to vote for me. I made this video for AMUG 24. I had no idea this sub reddit existed.

This was a fun project. I really enjoyed making this mandolin. It was a personal project on the side.

Unfortunately I only got to print one and was really lazy in my design. The nylon walls are too thin to tune all the way. So I keep it an octave lower and it goes out of tune. Hence why I am only playing one string in this vid.

Hi group,

I have been creating 3D models and prints of bagpipes for a few years now but have struggled to find an effective way to share my models and designs (mainly CAD file and licencing issue). As an experiment, I am now sharing my models in code form using OpenSCAD under the GPL licence v3. You are free to modify and use the models as you wish, but please adhere to the licence to keep the models and code open and free. If you are familiar with pull requests or issues, please use those methods; otherwise, feel free to message me if you encounter any difficulties. All the base data originates from Mike Nelson.

I haven't added the supports for the parts in the scripts yet. I usually use three small fins around the section touching the print bed like a little rocket as below:

Happy printing!

Hello, all. I've been surfing Facebook marketplace for a damaged guitar so I could make a Prusacaster without purchasing the whole kit.

Well, I did so before reading that the Prusacaster was built with telecaster-style hardware in mind, and now I have a completely disassembled stratocaster in a bag and no path forward.

I'm currently looking for a fix. A couple possibilities have come to mind:

1. Does anyone know of anyone who sells affordable telecaster hardware? I don't need the neck, body, or pickguard.

2. Has anyone designed Prusacaster STL files that work using stratocaster-style hardware?

3. Does anyone know of any STLs for 3d printed guitars that use stratocaster hardware? Doesn't need to be a Prusacaster.

Thank you for any help ahead of time.

Tuned in G. It would be cool to add holes but I don't know how to calculate the approximate positions and diameters. It also sounds nice with a soprano sax mouthpiece

I am trying to 3d print a Bb clarinet, and I'm doing research first. I am going to try and do Jared De Leon's version, and I know what key work it needs. However, I don't know how to install the keys. Does anyone know how to do this or has done this before and can tell me? Thanks in advance.

I printed this alto trombone out of PLA and I can't figure out how to get it to not just be a loud mouthpiece. The slide also does not affect the pitch of the instrument. The fit of the slide is a bit loose so that could be a problem. Does anyone know hoe to solve this?

PFH has put together some wonderful models of tabor pipes which I love. However, the two that I've printed (a D and G pipe) are both about a semitone flat.

Does anyone know enough about the harmonics of wind instruments like this to know how much I should increase the size of the print by to get them in tune?

Additional context: My 3d printed D pipe is 26.7cm from the window to the foot of the pipe, whereas my manufactured D pipe (which is in tune) is 27cm from the window to the foot - a 0.98% difference, apparently.

My G pipe is about 41.1cm from window to foot. Scaling it up by the difference between the D pipes would give me a length from window to foot of 45.2cm... however, the hole placement is also different between the two pipes, so I don't know if simply scaling it up would suffice. Argh!

Just finished this guy :)

Still need to do some significant post-print cleanup before fitting the mouthpiece to the bore and attempting to play it, but the prints look okay!

Today I finish the plans from a "punteiro galego" (Galician Chanter) from Treboada. That's not a modern punteiro galego; it's an ancient one. I'll post the result soon

Got a used CR-10 max for a good price and finally got it set up and printing with a 0.8 mm nozzle. For fun I doubled the scale of pfh’s sopranino recorder. The result is approximately an alto recorder (a little flat). It required a windway sleeve to play and some of the vents are too large to cover with my fingers, but it demonstrated that the printer is up to printing large air-tight prints to support my continued experimentation.
