Sounds pretty good! It’s printed out of PHA (polyhydroxyalkanoates). This is a food safe naturally occurring material synthesized by bacteria, and it is fully biodegradable in a reasonable time span, in any biome, with no microplastics. Design from SolidZone, material from Filaments.ca Regen collection. Once the world figures out how to get sustainable pinene resin working, I want to try running a vacuum resin stabilization on it as well.

    I’m a rank amateur at playing them really. It sounds good but is definitely a bit out of tune. Luckily with vessel flutes in general, you can just adjust the size of the holes to bring it back in tune again! In fact the designer of this one in particular lists 2 files, one with holes and one without. They recommend making your own holes, which is the better way to tune it, since it’s easier to make a hole bigger than to make it smaller. Nevertheless, you can still make the holes smaller via successive layers of varnish/lacquer/etc.
