3D printed PVC Membrane clarinet based on the plans and ideas from Nicolas Bras

This instrument is quick and easy to print, and easy to play, you don't need any technique, just blow through the mouthpiece, that's it.
Great for adults and kids alike.
When you blow air through the mouthpiece, it will push through the membrane at the top, and create a vibration.
You can adjust the membrane tension by (un)screwing the top cap.
Using different materials (balloon, latex glove, thin paper, …) as a membrane alters the tone.
2023-03-11 - Added 20mm pvc pipe version. Ask for other sizes if needed (I can add imperial versions but I cannot test them)
PLA, supports touching buidlplate, 3 walls, 15%infill
If you have trouble with the threads, adjust flow rate and/or horizontal expansion
Tip: The upper E hole is optional, removing it makes it easier to play the instrument for kids
I'm bad at wind instruments, I know, and mine isn't even properly tuned :p
Show me what you come up with in the comments and makes :D
