I feel like it'd work somewhat better if you just printed it solid with all walls so the buzzing from playing can actually travel thru the Trumpet rather than get lost in the infill pattern.
Is it the valves themselves that don't work, like if I modified it and put actually metal ones do you think it would work? Or is it just the design overall in terms of tubing length?
I think it's the material itself not being resonant enough. I am curious about brass filaments and the like, though. Lemme know how it goes if you take a crack at it!
@@Patrick_Gibney Thanks! I wanted to make something practical in terms of 3D printing a trumpet so I am going to attempt a pocket trumpet just for fun and make it so that you can use standard metal valve fittings 😁, I will definitely update you on it if I get any decent results!
@@Patrick_Gibney I might try to create my own Trumpet Replica model and print it in resin for a fun little project! If I do, I'll need to let you know how it works!
It’s plastic, not metal. It should play and sound WILDLY different than an “actual” trumpet. I played from 6th grade till 11th grade. This makes me want to get back into it.
the file is a scan of a brass trumpet so because plastic has a different resonate frequency its not tuned to be a plastic trumpet that's part of the reason
You are slipping down the 3D printed rabbit hole. Let's see how deep it goes. Also nobody knows how youtube works. Every time someone claims they have figured it out RU-vid changes the rules. All hail the Algorithm!
