While I iterated on the internal chambers and overall size, I did so only after studying the Flat Pocket Whistle by Jonas Daehnert and the Micro Bitonal Whistle by AC Studio.

Updates

[ 1/29/2026 ] Height modifications and tests.

After printing several hundred of these, I decided to reduce the height by 1mm to save a little (0.08g) filament per print. The volume of the whistle is maintained, and it is not too much harder to blow into. I had originally tried a 3mm height, and while it was successful, it required a lot more effort to blow into than I liked. 

I also enjoyed the robustness of the thicker loop, so that is the default approach now.
