Unicorn-Horn Drumsticks (for 3D-printing)

3D Model

Includes two sets of split models for printing flat and being glued together, as well as un-split/whole versions. I used hot-glue on PLA plastic, and they’ve never broken. One set is for a version with a tightly twisted spiral, and the other is for a version with a loosely twisted spiral. One drumstick ought to be mirrored from the other, so that the drummer can experiment with which grip is more comfortable.

The equivalent size, in terms of standardized sticks, is (probably) 2B—heavy, for hard play and big sounds.

HOWEVER, you can determine the weight yourself by how many print-“walls” you set and how densely you set the “infill”.

The tip-shape is “acorn”.

The tone of 3D-printed drumsticks depends almost entirely on the type of filament used. PLA might be comparable to manufactured nylon sticks, PETG is a bit softer, and ABS is a bit harder. I haven’t tried printing drumsticks with real-wood filaments yet, but there’s an idea for ya.

Glow-in-the-dark and thermochromatic pigmented filaments are FUN!! 🤩
