65cm collapsible vuvuzela for all the World Cup fans out there. Ridiculously loud!
Prints in 5 ~14.5cm (5.7in) tall segments. Will fit on almost any desktop printer and segments snap together. easily My fit is a little wiggly, but I'm printing in nylon which is not as stiff as ABS or PLA. Feedback on your fit appreciated! I'll probably improve the clips anyways.
Collapses to under 40cm and locks in collapsed position
Includes teardrop holes to attach a string/strap without the need for support
I've included a multibody .sldpt file and a .step file. The .step includes a simple single body Vuvuzela. Feel free to make derivatives, changes, do whatever you like with it and have fun! Please link here and use share alike licensing if you post a derivative design.
For those of you with very tall printers (>40cm), or if you want to mess around with something more complete than the single body .step; I'll be adding 2 .step's of the 2 collapsible sections.
Stay tuned for updates, pics, a video, and more. If you have a question or interest, drop a comment.
