      I guess that’s why flipple flutes were the first to be commonly injection moulded too :) even today most ocarinas bought new are plastic rather than clay. And of course recorders are even more just plastic.

      @@hyperteleXii don't think about plastic through the prism of Mold injection. 3d printing doesn't have limitations of mass production techniques. And if you take it serious you can create things impossible to achieve with other manufacturing methods.

  • @randomdude1rd1
    @randomdude1rd1 4 месяца назад +23

    so happy that you discovered 3d printing! the possibilities are truly endless.
    One thing to keep in mind when making flutes/wind instruments: they'll sound much better if you seal them. You can seal a print by coating it with a thin layer of epoxy, or if your using ABS or ASA filament you can use a process called Acetone Vapor Smoothing.
    Another benefit is that they won't get as nasty from saliva buildup
    Happy printing!

    • @NicolasBras
      @NicolasBras  4 месяца назад +8

      Seems interesting, do you have some examples of those manipulations?

    • @TomekUoo
      @TomekUoo 4 месяца назад +3

      unfortunately acetone vapor smoothing can affect the accuracy of dimensions. It's worth trying though, However I can see easier improvement by increasing the number of perimeters - this should help with the ocarina

But it might come, he fuest needs to master this new tools and plastic as a material. The beauty will start one he can build things, you can‘t build manually. Flutes likes sponges, strings like thorns, percussions like bones ..I hope he can bring his creativity in this new medium. I miss the wood.. bu there‘s things where plastic is better, or can be combined.

    I love to see your experimentation, my 3 oldest adult kids are all very musical. Musical instrumentation is only at the edge of my experiments but Xmas of 2021 I did find on line the Jaw harp and was amazed, Had never encountered before. So I designed up 3D printed jaw harps, then bought a fibre laser to cut thin metal, made many jaw harp thin metal designs finally culminating in a hybrid metal twanger design with 3D print body to make holding easier. All up, about 5 months of my life. The first Ocarina you show, I tried printing it but it didn't play well. I think needs a different print orientation, there is very little sound from it. For your printing, I think fill % and fill patter will make a huge difference. fill% affects cell size detail and the fill type will also affect resonance, gyroid fill possibly least resonant but cubic with low layer height seals cells, I use it for hydrofoil wing models I design.

      well - the soprano one has flat fret board, but for the bass one I thought about it. However the thickness of the strings makes those layer steps not so important - especially when there are no frets. But for aesthetic reasons and just to check this out it's a great idea.

    Could you make a type of didgeridoo that could make more musical notes, because in all didgeridoos you can hear just 1 note, maybe you could maybe create some sort of a *flute didgeridoo* ( but not like the multi-wind instrument you already made) because im kind of curious how could a didgeridoo that can play more notes sound like?
