I've always wanted to make my own version of an acoustic 3D-printed violin, an instrument that sounds authentic without the help of electronics.
This is a full-size, fully playable acoustic violin based on tracings of a Stradivarius. It is compatible with most violin fittings (strings, bridge, pegs, tailpiece etc) but some of these fittings are also 3D printable, with the included files. The prototypes were made on a Form 2 SLA printer. The parts should work with an SLS printer and maybe(!) an FDM printer with fine nozzle and support generation.
I have included instructions on how to assemble the violin.
The violin was designed parametrically on Onshape, a new cloud-based modeling program. You can view the open-source design (and create an editable copy) for free here.
If you'd like to learn more about how I designed this, please have a look at the blog post I wrote at Formlabs.com.
