This violin is designed for two purposes:

As a Christmas gift for my younger brother, Daniel, who is an avid musician in my hometown\u2019s high school orchestra.

As a cost-effective alternative to traditional violins. The 3rd Generation of the violin is roughly $60 to build (without pickups), while an electric equivalent is roughly $140. I hope this will make music more accessible to students in the future!

I made this violin entirely in Solidworks and it is completely finished for FDM and SLS printing alongside being fully playable and capable of being rigged with pickups!

We\u2019ve 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.\r\n\r\n \r\nAll valid entries should be able to be played and make a noise. We don\u2019t want to see toys that look like instruments but don\u2019t play. We also don\u2019t want to see accessories that don\u2019t 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.\r\n\r\n \r\nMaking 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\u00a0what you all come up with!","isOpen":false,"__typename":"CompetitionType"}],"contestsResults":[{"ranking":null,"contest":{"id":"368","name":"Musical Instruments","slug":"musical-instruments","modelsCount":387,"openFrom":"2023-04-01T00:00:00+00:00","openTo":"2023-05-31T23:59:59+00:00","__typename":"CompetitionType"},"__typename":"CompetitionResultType"}],"prusameterPoints":null,"latestContestResult":{"ranking":null,"competitionId":"368","__typename":"PrintLatestCompetitionResult"},"referencingArticles":[]}}}
