Shaker, Instrument

thingiverse

The shaker offers a convenient way to keep in rhythm and add an enjoyable feel to certain songs. If you have thoughts on a potential instrument that could be printable, reach out to us, and we'll work on designing it for you. At Plabs 3D, we are dedicated to providing innovative 3D printing solutions. For optimal performance, I suggest using an 80% infill or 100% for the shaker lid, ensuring thread durability. The body requires less infill, with 50% being ideal. Feel free to experiment with different infill levels as it may alter the sound and personal preference comes into play. The two parts of the shaker fit together seamlessly, designed with a slight difference in dimensions for precision printing purposes. I was pleasantly surprised by how well this mechanism works. To enhance the model's performance, consider adding a TPE or Soft PLA ring to create an airtight seal between the parts. Fill your shaker with rice, lentils, peas, coins, or any other material that suits your fancy. Experiment with different fillings to achieve the desired sound and enjoy creating music! If you have any instrument ideas, feel free to share them with us, and we'll strive to design them for you. From all of us at Plabs 3D, happy shakin' and enjoy the rhythm!
