3d Drums: 24" Bassdrum - Sci-Fi-Style: Unique features... unique look... great sound - professionally sound checked...

24"=60cm. Printed 3x yet. On Pro-XXL-Printers. ABS, ASA+Carbon. With infill or solid… No support needed… 

Sounds great… comes close to a High-End-Drum… close, but we just got started here.

Unique features of this 3d-drum-idea….

• Two different conical Sound-Shapes inside (like a African Djembe)
  • gives two different Drumhead-Possibilities as a Batter- or Resonant-Side
  • a unique sound-experience
• Outstanding Design
  • Pentagon-Relief on the outside shell
  • asymmetrical 9 tuning-screws and drum-lugs (instead of 8 or 10 as usual)
  • a unique drum-hoop-design, fitting those 9 screws
• Hollow Shell-Construction gives a additional Resonant-Body (like acoustic-guitar)
• Penta-Hole No 1 - Air-Hole 
  • big enough to insert 2 cables with microphone-plugs into the drum
  • easy placement of 2 microphones inside - without a hole in the drumhead
• Penta-Hole No 2 - Shell-Hole
  • gives access to Hollow-Shell for
    •  extra microphone placement inside the shell (to be experimented with…)
    •  filling-material (to be experimented with…)
      • filling up the Shell (with Sand or Granulat) gives 
        • a variable Shell-Mass/Weight 
        • a light drum to carry
        • a heavy/flexible drum to play
        • more or less Low-End Frequencie
        • (lots of fun with a vacuum-cleaner to remove the filling from the drum… ;-)
• Feet-Construction without the need for extra holes in the shell
  • fits right over those “drum-lugs”
  • easy to swap the Batter- and Resonant-Side

You will need…

• 1x printed Shell (uploaded)
  • print as solid as possible for a better sound. Experiment with material. 
• 2x printed Rings/Hoops (Uploaded!)
• 2x printed Legs (uploaded - support or not… it's up to your printer!)
• 2x 24" Drumheads (you need to buy those…)
• 2x9 = 18 of those Drum-Lugs with Screws and Claws for the Rings/Hoops (you need to buy those…)
• 18 flexible screw-supports for a better assembling-experiment… printed in TPU (Uploaded)
• also some more TPU-parts for isolating the feet from the shell and some cool design-options with different colours… experiment! 

Those small parts can be printed with every printer… but those Bass-Shell and those Hoop-Rings were printed on a XXL-STRATASYS, BIGREP and a TRACTUS System. Thanks to those freaks there for helping me getting this giant experiment done.
