I’m sharing a keyless B♭ clarinet prototype! Woodwinds may look easy, but designing one that actually plays well is much harder than it seems. After 13 design iterations and 4 printed versions, this is the first model that works reliably. It’s still a work in progress : tuning, resonance, and tone need refinement. Includes printed body only (mouthpiece, ligature, reed required). Likes and boosts help fund further testing, prototypes, and improvements!

Printed it in dark purple filament, The fun is painted with a single layer of shimmer silver, with subtle touches of sterling silver as weathering effect.
It’s a single thick layer so that a bit of the purple shine through giving it a strange unknown metal vibe (unfortunately not apparent in the photos). The handle is painted with a light layer of metallic burgundy.
overall very good model, I’ll make 2 notes nevertheless:
1 - a second register would have been nicer to easily align the canon to the trigger part
2 -the handle would have benefited to be a bit thicker.
the last thing is that on my big hand it looks smaller than on the print profile picture, maybe I should’ve printed it 5 to 10% bigger
