Flute head collection

Açıklama

This is a collection of vertical flute heads. Remixed from StanFred's model for a fujara using 25mm pipe - I removed the right angled duct in the top, for it to be blown directly with the mouth, and adapted it for pipes ranging from 8 to 63mm (keeping the height of the window and windway about the same between all models, the width of the window about 40% of the internal diameter of each pipe, and the external diameter of the head as small as possible).The work was somewhat quick and dirty, and the extreme ends of the range aren't particularly usable (although that is also a function of the length of the pipe being used). 12-40mm seem to work well enough for flutes with internal diameter to length ratios of about 1:40 (I made an ensemble of Romanian caval flutes tuned from A5 down to D2).The models will need to be scaled to the exact diameter of the pipe used, with a fitting tolerance, in accordance with the printer's accuracy (or just use sandpaper/tape. Tape is a lot easier). Scaling for other pipe diameters (such as imperial sizes) is also possible within reason (I tried it up to about 20% without issue). Also the ramp will probably benefit from some sanding (don't worry if the very tip doesn't print well), and the whole interior of the head (and the flute body for that matter) should be as smooth as possible, so print as fine as you can be bothered.
