Simple one-tone flute

thingiverse

This design was created after struggling with various flute models for kids. It's simple, easy to print, and consistently works. The model is suitable for Ultimaker printers but should also print successfully on other printer types. Precision in creating a sharp and fine "gap" bottom is crucial for the flute's functionality. For smaller sizes, there's a limit due to this reason. To produce different tones, try scaling the flute. PLA printing with retraction/comb settings helps reduce cleanup. ABS printing does not have string issues. To avoid confusion over ownership, initials of kids were added to their respective flutes. The design has been confirmed to print well on MakerGear M2 and Printrbot Jr.
