Half Moon Block Percussion

thingiverse

These percussion blocks were born from my passion for crafting an assortment of 3D printable percussion instruments that are both affordable and melodious. The blocks can be attached to a drum kit or percussion rig, or you can print the handle, nut, and bolt to play them by hand. The best part is, you can produce as many as you need and use them in any parade you like. The Percussion blocks come in three distinct sizes and are designed to accommodate a 10.5mm rod and U clamp. Each block has an attachment area with the following dimensions: 25mm x 22mm, featuring an 11mm hole, identical on all blocks. I've also included a printable handle, nut, and bolt that you can use to connect any of the blocks together for hand-held play. To produce these blocks, print them with at least a 35% infill for optimal sound quality. However, it's recommended to print the bolt at 50% infill for added strength. The Half Moon Block interior supports can be printed every other row, resulting in a block that prints well and is easier to remove afterward. This package includes six printable files: Small Block, Medium Block, Large Block, Handle, Nut, and Bolt.
