Here's my musical instrument for the SelfCad August 2020 design competition. I thought it would be cool to be able to play two notes at the same time on a trumpet, so I came up with this thing. It's a normal B flat trumpet combined with a piccolo trumpet, which is an octave higher. I'm not really sure if it would actually work, but it's kind of cool looking. Since it's supposed to be a trumpet, I highly doubt it would work if it was 3D printed, so I opted out of making the entire thing hollow. I accidentally merged all the pieces before I knew I shouldn't have done that, and I didn't realize it before I couldn't undo the merge, so I'm adding another file which I fixed using Netfabb, since the magic fix tool in selfcad would destroy it.

Someone pointed out that it wouldn't work anyway, though I still have hope it would.
