Description
I have also designed other members of this whistle family:
Description:
This building bricks compatible steam train whistles have only 2 tubes. However, the choosen geometry generates suitable overtones that ensure the realistic sound. The whistles can be blown softly or loudly.
How to print:
Print with 0.4 mm line width and 0.2 mm layer height, 7 top and 7 bottom layers. And don't print too fast, a whistle needs sharp edges!
The whistles require correct positioning of the Z-seam - it shouldn't be placed in the narrow air passages inside the whistle. The Z-seam should be positioned as shown in the image above (the white dots represent the Z-seam). Use the “Z Seam Alignment: User specified” option in Cura or the "Seam Painting" option in PrusaSlicer to achieve this.
