Across all cultures, we make music. Mankind has found hundreds of ways to make music through the millennia, now it’s your chance to recreate some of those methods or create your own. We want to see functional designs of brass, string, woodwind, or percussion instruments. We’ve seen some great examples of what is possible with 3D-printed instruments in the past, we have high hopes for what you all can create this time.   All valid entries should be able to be played and make a noise. We don’t want to see toys that look like instruments but don’t play. We also don’t want to see accessories that don’t affect the sound of an instrument such as guitar stands or drumstick cases. Accessories that do affect the sound such as a mute for a trombone are also valid. Bellow you will find examples of instruments already uploaded to Printables to help inspire you.   Making high quality printable instruments that actually sound good is going to be a challenge but we believe you all are up to it. To help ensure success, this contest will run for two months ending at the end of May. Good luck to you all and we can't wait to see and hear what you all come up with!
