video of it working comming soon

 

stuff needed:

75cm(can be different to make different pitch) long tube (ID-46mm OD-50mm)

1,5m long M4 threaded rod

48 M4 nuts

1mm thick rubber sheet (or any other air tight flexible 1mm sheet material (I used felt and it didnt work))

step drill

saw

sandpaper or file

 

before building I highly recomend read to see how to drill holes, how whistles work and to understand this more in general https://www.guidogonzato.it/whistle/

how to build:

  1. line the tube
  2. make the opening(on the opposite  side of the line)
  3. sand down the fipple (yes it is called fipple)
  4. insert “inner.stl” and “outer.stl”
  5. mark spots for holes
  6. glue 6x “valve6.stl” along the line (bottom ones on right, top ones left(see pictures))
    dont forget to drill hole
  7. assemble valve caps from 2x  M4 nuts + “ValveCap.stl” + 2x (one mirrored) “LinkShort.stl” and “LinkMed.stl” and “LinkLong.stl”
    repeat 2x until you have 6 valve caps
    and glue rubber(or any other sealant you choose
  8. glue “KeyHold1” “KeyHold2” and "KeyHold3" (use your threaded rod to aling them)
  9. assemble keys from “Key.stl” + 2x  M4 nuts + 2x (one mirrored) “KeyLinkShort.stl” and “KeyLinkMed.stl” and “KeyLinkLong.stl”
    repeat 2x until you have 6
  10. assemble
