I printed a few other Ocarinas that I found online for my girls and they are a lot of fun to play. I thought I could make a few improvements, so I designed this one.
This is an A Major 12-Hole Ocarina based on my tuning measurements.
To my ear, this sounds as good as or better than the other ocarinas I've 3D printed. Also, I angled the mouthpiece for a more natural holding and playing position than some of the other designs I found (similar to some other classic ocarinas I saw online).
I like the way it looks with the low-poly aesthetic—it gives a Star Wars or Stealth Fighter vibe. Or maybe just that low poly Zelda Ocarina of Time look.
It also makes for easy, high-quality, support-free printing. And it stands naturally on its side, which is kind of fun.
V2 Updates:
- Tweaked the bottom edge surface to be a steeper angle and therefore build more cleanly.
- Added small blends around inside the mouthpiece.
- Slightly increased the size of the right ring finger hole for improved tuning.
- Moved the secondary ring finger holes a little closer to the main holes.
- Added a much faster, less material print profile. Sounds and looks similar.
