Description

<h2>The Modular Fiddle is a testbed for 3D printed violins.</h2> <h3>It's also an excellent acoustic violin.</h3> ****** <h3>I am failing to keep Thingiverse up to date. Please get the latest project info and print files on [my website!](https://openfabpdx.com/modular-fiddle/modular-fiddle-instructions)</h3> ****** <h3>5-String, Hardanger, Viola, and more are available! Follow the link above.</h3> ****** Hear the Modular Fiddle, Hovalin, and my wood violin [spliced together in one song.](https://youtu.be/0sXDPzzKffs) ****** Here's a more [in-depth comparison.](https://youtu.be/8wK9HUCHBeo) ****** Once you build a Modular Fiddle, you can change out any part in about ten minutes. Experiment with structures only possible using 3D printing! <ul> <li>What kinds of sounds can a violin make? </li> <li>How can a violin sound different? </li> <li>How can generative design techniques improve the playability or change the sound of a violin?</li> <li>What can we do with 3D printing that hasn't been tried before? </li> </ul> <strong>Let's answer these questions!</strong> ****** The printed parts are the Body, Neck, Pegbox, Tailpiece, and Bridge. You will need to purchase strings, tuners, and chin rest.
