Trumpet Straight Mute

prusaprinters

<p>A quick and easy straight mute. Great for students.</p> <p>I measured my straight mute, modeled it in openscad and 3d printed a new one. just glue some cork to the side and you are good to go.</p> <p>I tried it in vase mode but it sounded horrible. Don't go down that road.</p> <p>I've included the openscad file. It's just a couple lines to create a hollow cone.</p> <p>It's almost indistinguishable in tone from the original. Resistance is the same. It's slightly darker than the "real" mute and it falls apart in the extreme low register, but who's writing G below low C muted trumpet parts?</p> <p>Bonus: The bottom fell out of my vase mode attempt and I've used it every day for over a year as a funnel to put ice into my water bottle.</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong></p> <p>Creality</p> <p class="detail-setting printer"><strong>Printer: </strong> <div><p>CR10S PRO</p></div> <p><strong>Rafts:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p class="detail-setting supports"><strong>Supports: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div> <p><strong>Resolution:</strong></p> <p>.4</p> <p class="detail-setting infill"><strong>Infill: </strong> <div><p>solid</p></div> <p><strong>Filament:</strong> Hatchbox PLA black</p> </p></p></p> Category: Music
