Emergency Cello Bridge

thingiverse

Running off of the same idea of the Emergency Violin Bridge, here is an emergency cello bridge! A coworker of mine knew I had a 3D printed, and being the nerdy lot we are at work, talked to his wife about it. His wife had just seen the violin bridge, and as a strings teacher, her curiosity was peeked. She plays cello mainly, and as such, wanted to have a cello bridge printed to see how it works! At this time, it has yet to be tested. But once it has, I will update this thing! Few things to point out with this STL: first, it's a tad short. The feet are also at a too-steep of angle, and there are no string grooves printed. Due to this, I am marking this as a "work-in-progress" as I may go back to the file and edit it to make it the right size. Also, as a note: I did print this out at a 60% infill. Logic being maple has a 60% density, so it makes sense. I'm not scientist (or celloist!), though, so chances are I will be printing these off at diffrent infills for further testing. Instructions 1)Print the part twice! 2)Glue the parts together. I suggest acetone/ABS juice 3)Cut/carve the string grooves in. I used a dremel with a cutting wheel to do this. 4)Set the bridge up an play! If you make this and use it, let me know how it sounds! I'm curious as to how well this will work.
