Recorder (Musical Instrument) Negative Space

youmagine

Make your own unique and functional recorder instrument! The original file for my recorder, available on V2.2, is somewhat disorganized when all you need to focus on is the windway if you're planning to create an entirely new design based on it. Therefore, here's that simplified version with all unnecessary parts removed in one convenient file. Instead of dealing with a single large complex shape that often proves difficult to work with by Boolean subtracting (which can lead to subpar results), the included STL has multiple overlapping shapes that need to be separated and individually subtracted for the best possible outcome, as I've discovered through experience. Note that the lowest finger hole is not rotated to make it easily accessible by the pinky finger. Consider this detail in your design; either pre-rotate it like in v2.1b or incorporate an adjustable feature similar to v2.2.
