🎸 Printed Instruments Part 11: I printed a full acoustic guitar — and it plays a real song. The pieces had no joints at all, so I glued the whole thing together with hot glue (naturally). Strung it with nylon since steel would pull way too hard for a plastic body, tuned it up, and played a little Green Day. This one actually works. 🔗 Every model + link from every video → patreon.com/PluggedIn3d #3DPrinting #Guitar #FunctionalPrint #BambuLab #PluggedIn3D

Transcript

a whole acoustic guitar — and it plays a real song. The pieces had no joints at all, so I glued the whole thing together with hot glue (naturally). Strung it with nylon since steel would pull way too hard for a plastic body, tuned it up, and played a little Green Day. This one actually works. Every model + link from every video → patreon.com/PluggedIn3d #3DPrinting #Guitar #FunctionalPrint #BambuLab #PluggedIn3D I kept asking if I should do strings or keys next. And you guys said saxophone. So here's a guitar. The pieces had no joints at all, so I glued the whole thing together with hot glue. You know about flat surfaces? You know about hot glue style? Because that's what we do here. We make things work. It felt deeply wrong and deeply right at the same time. I think you know the feeling. I strung it with nylon, not steel. That matters because steel strings pull almost twice as hard. All the prints you see in my videos are available on my Patreon. Now, I've got some bigger projects coming your way. Can you guess what they are? I bet you can't. Every layer matters. And so do you. So make the best of this task. Don't ask why. It's not a question. It's something unpredictable, but in the end, it's alright. I hope you have the design.
