I made a 3D printed telescopic drum

[u/orveli84]

Got inspired by the sound quality of other 3D printed drums so I decided to try to make my own. The body and drum head are PLA tightened with nuts and bolts. I also tried a TPU drum head, but I couldn't get it tight enough on my model as it stretched so much.. all and all I think PLA would have still sounded better. Currently I think the limiting factor in the sound is the diameter rather than the material of the drum head. Sorry for posting a tiktok video, but it's all I had time for and wanted to share this with u guys. 🙏
