Vintage NuTone Chime Cover

thingiverse

I have a 1960s mechanical NuTone doorbell chime and I wanted to update the look while keeping the mechanical chimes. I liked bmemike's cover design but had to adapt it to work with my chime since it has the mechanical chimes coming out the bottom. You will also need the grate from his original design as that was unchanged. I printed the frame out of wood filament and the grate out of white PLA. I cut and glued in place a piece of thin black fabric behind the grate to help hide the wires etc that otherwise showed through. I used Rub 'n Buff on the chimes to make them pewter colored (they were originally brass).
