  • scale to 134% [will be improved later]
  • 4 walls
  • supports[?might be ok without, untested.]
  • adhesion [optional]
  • low quality [.28mm]
  • infill [might be optional, I did 20% cubic for the heck of it]

Just thought it would be cool to share for other parents during these rough times,

I was looking at the other drum stick designs and was thinking it seemed like a waste to print essentially a stick, and so I designed these drumstick caps to go on the ends of colored pencils [or whatever round stick with some scaling/trial error]

I messed up the initial measurement so I'd say try printing at about 133.333...% scale I went up to 134% then I simply used some gorilla glue [via gluestick I think most sturdy glues should work ok.] and presto, drum sticks for toy drums/glockenspiels/etc, not tested for serious drumming lol let me know if you decide to test at own risk haha.

As far as printing, I used PLA, it's a simple print I used adhesion and supports [might not need supports but it's such a small print why not] I upped the walls to 4 and used cubic infill at 20% being as small as it is not sure how much a difference it'll really make lol also worked fine on low quality.

Notes:

it's pretty simple, 4 walls is probably the biggest tip, 20% infill but remember to print at 133/134%, pencil widths may vary I'll update this again later, it's late but felt like sharing had fun.
