Porous Tuba Fingerpad

thingiverse

A Simple Experiment with Freeform Objects in Inventor for Enhanced Ergonomics. Attach it to Your Tuba's Key for Maximum Comfort. Scaling Instructions: To achieve the perfect fit, follow these easy steps: Scale uniformly by multiplying your finger width across the nail by 1.5. Adjust scaling non-uniformly and scale Z-axis to one-third of your finger height from the top of the nail to the bottom of the pad. Printing Preferences: Rafts: You can ignore this setting or choose any preference you like, it won't make a significant difference. Supports: Don't bother with supports; they're not necessary in most cases. Resolution: Opt for 0.2mm resolution for crisp and clear prints. Infill: Feel free to experiment with different infill levels – anything works well enough. You can even get away with using just two or three shells at a low infill percentage, resulting in a satisfactory outcome.
