Drum With 3D Printable Drum Head

myminifactory

This is an artwork I created in 3DCoat. The concept revolves around a piece of advanced technology discarded by post-apocalyptic survivors who have adapted it to create a musical instrument, reminiscent of 1980s sci-fi B-movies. The drum's body is solid and should be printed without a top or bottom, with no infill, using three to four shells. Print the head with Ninjaflex instead. Alternatively, print the drum body with a bottom and omit the head entirely because it makes for a more visually appealing vase than a functional drum. We discussed this project and various aspects of 3D printing in detail on the 3D Printing Today podcast available on iTunes, Stitcher radio, or directly from its source at http://threedprintingtoday.libsyn.com/
