3D printed violin is better than we expected

3D printed violin definitely is not the most spectacular object created by this method, but it might be the most original idea ever.

Although it is difficult to say where they got the idea of making such musical instruments, Alex Davies could soon enter the top 3D printed art creators.

Overall, production costs associated with the violins, equal to about $ 12. The end result, which is not very aesthetic, involved combining several materials such as paper, plastic and some cheap wire. Although no mention of a Stradivarius violin, if we only summarize the relationship between price and performance, the result is unbelievable. As a small detail for a personal touch, the neck instrument, resemble a classical violin, is made ​​of cardboard.

If further iterations of the concept will be a little more presentable, it is not excluded that in a year or two to see an entire orchestra with instruments made out of a printer. After all, most objects that can be carved from wood, can also be 3D printed almost as resistant material.
