Triangle Shaker

thingiverse

This device is a common tool in many forms, known as a shaker. I created it in the shape of a triangle and added BBs when it was halfway finished. You can add anything you want to create a shaker sound: seeds, beads, etc. I used about twenty BBs, which made it a bit too loud but might be perfect for your needs. It prints without support, so as the triangle builds, you can add your beads or BBs. Just make sure what you add is shorter than where the printer head is to avoid interference with printing. Don't leave this print until after you've inserted your shaker medium; otherwise, it'll just be a hollow triangle. These shakers are great for making music, getting the class's attention like a bell, or annoying people if that's your hobby. I recommend printing at 100% infill for strength but other densities might work better for different sound qualities. Have fun! I designed this project for kindergarten through higher education students, skipping seventh grade because I'm pretty sure each boy gets a demon for one year and it wouldn't be good to let them have it.
