Cthulhu Death Whistle

thingiverse

When selecting the right support structure, it's absolutely crucial to stick with the "touching baseplate" option. If you opt for "everywhere," the whistle won't work because the voids will be filled with support structure! I'm forever grateful to Lnytns456 for discovering this the hard way - thanks again, dude! Just another crazy idea from my overactive brain... I stumbled upon the incredible Cthulhu sculpture by filipturz, then a friend told me about "aztec death whistles" and my mind somehow merged the two. Now you can create your own elder god whistle... This could make for an awesome prop in a Lovecraft campaign - maybe it's dropped by a cultist or similar character... Blowing it might give you some kind of benefit, but it would also cause sanity loss and has a small chance of something really bad happening. Compared to filpturz' original sound, this one is a bit less ear-piercing, but I wouldn't call it a "musical instrument" because the sound is far from pleasant. It's essential that you print this in the same XY orientation as shown. You can rotate it around the Z axis to fit your print bed diagonally, but if you rotate it around any other axis, there will be internal structure that won't print correctly unless supported from below. Print with a solid support bed - I recommend Cura Gyroid at 8% density or higher.
