Introduction
I am wanting to experiment a bit with 3D printing and want a somewhat "real" project. I play French Horn (in Bataafs Symfonieorkest) and have two metal mouthpieces which I use, one of them my "regular" mouthpiece, the other which I use less frequently which is not so good for high range notes.
Resources
Jane Kass has already created STL models of French Horn mouthpieces. I've tried printing one and now need to figure out how to edit it to make it into something which fits my French Horn.
Next Steps
I need to measure the printed mouthpiece, the existing mouthpieces, and the French Horn lead pipe.
I will try cutting the existing print down for length.
I then think I will try editing the STL (possibly in Blender?) to taper the barrel of the mouthpiece.
