Piano bench (3d printed legs)

thingiverse

I needed a decent bench to match my piano perfectly. I designed this one using the exact leg profile as the Petrof P IV recital, but scaled it down to achieve the ideal height. Although it's not extremely adjustable, thanks to the feet that screw into the legs, it is incredibly stable and silent while playing, unlike many other piano benches. Only the legs and feet were 3D printed, requiring a total of about 1.7kg of PLA. The two leg parts are assembled by screwing together using a library I found online, then glued to the seat with cyanoacrylate, which is extremely strong due to its large bonding surface (I used 5g of glue for all four legs). The feet have a hole for an 8mm hex wrench. I crafted the seat in the traditional way from a 50*35cm 22mm thick board, 5cm thick foam, wadding, and vinyl, following some excellent diamond tufting tutorials. The buttons are 3D printed and covered with the same vinyl fabric.
