Remember folks: got a young-ish niece or nephew who is old enough not to eat the print? Great gift! Parents will love the noise these make!

(2:20) "... otherwise the recorder will sound terrible" [cue Mandalorian theme song]. That was fantastic.

Prusa research; we make world class printer. Also prusa research; kazoo time

The reason the ASA recorder that had the acetone treatment was louder because the bore was smoother. The vibrating air could bounce off the inside of the tube more easily.

8:10 - Freaking Jožin z Bažin :D Didn't expect that

I've printed a few ocarinas. I don't know for certain why it matters, but I have found that printing them at 100% infill, or at least 50% or more, strictly for the extra mass, does seem to improve their tone.

Everyone: Prusa is a man who manufactures amazing 3d printers Procedes to play 7 nation army on a 3d printed kazoo. Bravo

I'm so excited my ocarina is printing rn and its looking really good. It's supposed to be one of the best designs

Thanks a lot for the Ocarina idea..I am having a great playing the 3d printed one

Awesome! Printing the Kazoo now.

A recorder was my inspiration to 3d printing!

I have a few ocarinas printed, they're pretty fun to play.

I tried the Kazoo and the Ocarina, sounds perfect

That Vader recorder is amazing

I lost it at the 7 nation army piece :D This is truly a great channel, I am getting a lot of enjoyment out of my Prusa Mini+ as well. All the best to you guys!

i have been playing with this design, my kids love it and give them away to their friends at school

It's so funny how you have to lift your middle finger on the "ending" notes of the Smoke on the Watter tune 🤣

Very neat! I just recently started looking at some recorders. A few points. (1) You may want to calibrate hole sizes to hope for a recorder that's as close to in tune as possible straight off the printer. Provided the model is good, of course. (2) They can be tuned after printing by filing holes larger or filling with some material to make them smaller. It's hard! (3) The labium won't print sharp enough, and you want to sharpen it with a razor after printing. (4) Models I saw have a fipple that's too big and takes too much air. This will be even worse if scaled up. Designers please keep this small. (5) Professional 3D printed recorders from a company names Paetzold are on the market and are very distinctive and high quality. I presume there is a lot of finishing work done. (6) The Sopranino is a standard recorder size just smaller than Soprano. (7) Those two sizes can be bought at very reasonable prices, and there is a case that it makes more sense to buy these sizes manufactured. (8) The price goes up a lot with the Alto and Tenor, making 3D printing them a lot more attractive. But I don't know any good models for these sizes. Scaling gives poor results. (9) I even saw a larger Great Bass recorder where most of the large tube is PVC pipe, but the key mechanisms are 3D printed. Smart design. Quite a lot of directions to go and music to be enjoyed.

It's funny I'm on the verge of doing this already and you drop this video 😂

The smooth bore allows for better reflection / vibration, not the holes. The holes honestly don't matter that much. AND (the main thing) you've "thinned" the recorder, so it resonates better.

i want to add that for the tuning it is not uncommon to pull specific parts of woodwind instruments out a little bit to tune them.

Great job 👏🏻

that plastic yamaha recorder sets a sky high standard, because it plays and sounds incredibly good, for a $10 instrument. you cant print anything this good on an FDM. (buts it's still fun to try, and ocarinas are a gold mine, of you can print, fint-tune, and play them.

Thanks my family will love this

I actually designed an ocarina to print but didn't have an FDM printer at the time, just SLA. I designed and printed a recorder but the fipple wasn't shaped quite right so it barely made any noise. I should work on it.

What a time to be alive

Note that traditional ocarinas are often made of clay that is baked in a kiln. Is it considered a "woodwind" instrument? I guess if a saxophone is. Saxophones are traditionally made of brass.

I don't know nothing about recorders, but I'm more familiar with ocarinas. And, well, the sound of the 3D printed ocarina was what I expected... ^^' Nice work, though! It's just that I guess it will take some time before 3D printers can make such wind instruments sound good. :)

You absolute madman

So very awesome

What setting did you have for the recorder ? I have a MK3S (MMU2S in single mode) and by using the 0.20 quality setting with brim an 10% infill the estimated time is around 5.5 hours.

Nice vid. A lot of good ideas to entertain kids.

I printed & painted that ocarina as a gift for a friend.

Any new info on a SL2, going to buy a xl version but need to know an aprox release date to know i should wait or move on :)

How does the prusa sim filament hold up in regards to expansion? I printed an Ocarina with CC3D Purple Silk and it was barely playable above a 6th, and an octave was impossible. When I reprinted with normal filament from overture, it worked perfectly up a 9th (C to D an octave higher). Was there any tweaks needed for the ocarina with your own filament?

Sweet Josef, you just made me into printing a kazoo. This is not going where I wanted...

So cool

Does it make a significant sound different if you print it with a smaller diameter nozzle?

Hey Prusa! Printing a guitar body on the mk3s+, wish me luck!

Kevlar tape is probably the best tape to tight something like this, it sounds fancy but is used in pluming all the time.

Hi, in addition to congratulating you for your precious videos, I wanted to ask you if by any chance you are aware of how to add the Elegoo Neptune 2 printer on cura, since by going to "add printer" the latter is not in the list .. .Thank you very much.

Love it

I wonder if remelting can work as well as acetone smoothing

for the ocarina, can you please tell what is the % of setting for "support"?

Good job 👏 👍🏼. I want to work in prusa.😎

if you wanted to tune the recorder better you could print the holes smaller and ream out the holes untill you get it perfect

what about using wood filaments on these wood winds?

The biggest fun is that someone is getting payed for this. 100% pure jealousy from my side.

This is the way.

WDYM it sounds terrible when the press-fit isn't perfect? It's the perfect Mandalorian sound!

I think a problem with 3D printed wind instruments is that they have the little lines inside you know? I think if you can put it through a smoothing process it would sound much better

2:36 that's similar to clarinets, which use cork to do the same thing

Best ad ever!!!!

If the PLA have the same mechanics properties than the PVC, yes, you can print wind musical instrument with it. After, i have a lot of xp with PVC instrument and i still prefer wooden instrument. The sound is really different. And i don't talk about a placebo, i really see a difference in the sound.

i think you can use some type of metal for kazoo membrane

Is this a clue as to the next design contest?

I was today years old when i learned that this is not a flute...

Please, Please make a Bass Recorder !

Does ASA printing work on the Mini? Or is the temperature to high for the PTFE in the hotend

Holy Shite, now these are something I can print and have fun with. Most of my 3d stuff is decorative, not functional. Then I must tackle the 3d printed ukulele and violin I saw.

I think you kazoos I had as a kid used wax paper for the membrane.

I have an error in the gcode of the ocarina, i'm new in 3dprint so help will be apreciated.

Try doing the 3d printed acoustic guitar by solstie

Is it safe to use brass extruder head for this purpose?

The people who are thumbs-downing this need a kazoo now!

Did i basicly just watch a 9min ad and enjoy it?!

2:03 That's the song from the mandalorian!

Can you make a saxofone?

Next up -Clarinet!

0:23 the best notification sound

Haha Badass! :p

Hello, I would like to make a sucker. I have PrusaSlicer and the Artillery Sidewinter X1 3D printer. Can I do it or not?

Vuvuzela next? :D

2:07 the mandalorian theme song 😮

2:04 this is the way

a 3D printed recoder cant hold up against the cheap yamaha one, shown at the start. (those are know to play incredibly well, for a $10 flute) printed ocarinas come very close to good storebought ones, though. but the most awesome printed instrument, i ever tried, is a pocket sax. they have a big, warm, and expessive sound, and are just increbly fun.

"You have to hum, not blow into a kazoo to produce sound. It's a very common mistake to make when trying it for the first time" I can't help but wonder if that is a little nudge at Mori Calliope, who did this in front of tens of thousands of people watching her live stream and even tried to do the buzzing lips thing trumpet/trombone/tuba players do for over 2 minutes and even ordered another one thinking the previous 2 she had didn't work before chat suggested she hum into it and she had a "WTF" moment.

I'd like to 3d print a hammer dulcimer

I have to try this And kazoo can be quite annoying if you blow it in someone's ear for an hour, ask me I am experienced.

06:20 How did the support come off so cleanly?? 😳

if you use pla can u use it beacuse pla isnt food safe

Can these be made on a resin printer?

but can you do a trumpet

you can use vaseline to seal the joints :)

Maybe I'm just dumb, but how did you get that sound out of yours. I printed the same 12 hole ocarina twice and can't get any sound out of it.

comically large kazoo

I'll up the ante with a Vuvuzela. Be the most loved uncle/aunt. And the most hated brother/sister.

Why on earth would you print a recorder? 😳🤯

Next: Vuvuzela

01:33 And turn off elephant foot compensation when you use brim.

Ocarina? Kazoo? Ahh, I see, you're a man of Nintendo aswell! And I hear at 2:05 you know the way aswell!

My royal, blue pla came wet out of the box I'm sad

A video about a Kazoo and you didn’t mention the kazoo kid meme? 🙈

does the kazooo need suports?

The worst noise only second to bag pipes

Secondo me il 3 ragazzo va bene

6:02 Link's ocarina

Josef's cute content ❤️ 💛 💚

RIP my discord buddies.

this mans mic is so good, you can hear his saliva in his mouth when he speaks, which is kinda disgusting... but hey this is a very interesting video. nice mandalorian reference btw :)
