Pillowed Egg Shaker

thingiverse

I made this egg shaker percussion instrument with the help of Customizer Easter Egg Maker 2015 by ricswika, inspired by Musical Shaker! by mikebattaglia. I edited the pillowed egg in OpenSCAD by subtracting a blank egg from its center, so that some popcorn seeds, beans, or other grains can be added during printing for the shaker sound. Here's a video showing what it and a couple of other shakers sound like. Print Settings Printer Brand Up! Printer Up Mini Rafts Yes Supports No Notes The way to disable supports on the Up Mini is by setting the "Area>" to "Base Only". I don't know how to disable supports on other printers, but it's probably something similar, or a dedicated setting. If supports aren't disabled, you'll probably get structural supports inside the egg, which would make it hard to add grains to cause the shaker sound.
