Awesome customizable compensated saddle for guitar or any other string instrument

prusaprinters

<p>First attempt on making a fully customizable compensated saddle. It's not ready so the edges are sharp, I recommend using 100% infill and a sandpaper to smooth the corners.</p> <p>v2: Now you can set saddle height at first and last string</p> <p>Set depth of slot for saddle, the part above the slot can extend both ways (there is a limit on the max distance backwards so the string attachments should go free)</p> <p>Other small fixes too</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer:</strong></p> <p>Tronxy</p> <p class="detail-setting rafts"><strong>Rafts: </strong> <div><p>Doesn't Matter</p></div> <p><strong>Supports:</strong></p> <p>Yes</p> <p class="detail-setting infill"><strong>Infill: </strong> <div><p>100%</p></div> <h3>How I Designed This</h3> <p>Each string has it's own "string support" that can be adjusted back and forth. Each support is also adjusted to match the selected saddle radius.</p> <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://cdn.thingiverse.com/assets/d8/1f/2b/cb/b8/saddle_2_1.png"/></p> <p class="detail-caption"><strong>One support for each string</strong></p> <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://cdn.thingiverse.com/assets/db/4b/dd/0e/f0/saddle_2_2.png"/></p> <p class="detail-caption"><strong>First front cut for slot</strong></p> <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://cdn.thingiverse.com/assets/92/f7/80/82/21/saddle_2_3.png"/></p> <p class="detail-caption"><strong>Second front cut to remove unnecessary material in front</strong></p> <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://cdn.thingiverse.com/assets/b0/9c/11/6d/ba/saddle_2_4.png"/></p> <p class="detail-caption"><strong>Rear cut for slot</strong></p> <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://cdn.thingiverse.com/assets/11/94/a0/0c/72/saddle_2_5.png"/></p> <p class="detail-caption"><strong>Rear cut for maximum overhang</strong></p> <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://cdn.thingiverse.com/assets/93/bf/b9/63/1b/saddle_2_6.png"/></p> <p class="detail-caption"><strong>Bottom cut</strong></p> </p></p> Category: Music
