3D printed Headphone

prusaprinters

Does it sound good?No, at first it sounded great (compared to my 5$ headset), but now that I bought a better one, it barely gets used, hopefully I can improve it in the future. BOM:m3: 8x 30mm, 2x 20mm, 6 nuts and 2 washers.m4:2x 20mm.1x p3 connector.2x (a pair of) 110mm ear pads.44mm wide sewer pipe section , adjust accordingly to your preference.25mm wide fabric for the head band, mine is around 50cm long, 40cm should be enoughthread locking glue, generic superglue also works.The thin wire was harvested from a old earphone.Build details:This is how the arm, pvcArcMount and the strapMount are attached together. Without the washer, the nut gets loose over time, use thread locker here.The strapMount is screwed directly to the m3 screw. Yes screwing metal to plastic is not great, but it is good enough for this.Apply supports to the main body like in the picture below.The assembly should be easy, just follow the pictures.Build Notes:If you go for a single p3 connector for both sides (the same way I did) you will need to drill a hole on the top of both back pieces. For this join the back and main body with screws, drill the hole similar to the pictures. Use this hole to pass the wire for connecting both speakers.Notes:A open back design may help, need to try it later.Ideally I would have used a mini xlr connector, but I only had p3 connectors at hand, so that's what I used (p3 is also smaller, so easier to make space for it). Don't get the cheapest connectors like I did or else you will suffer from bad connections.Designing this project was a fun challenge.
