3d Printed Mouthpiece

[DiveBomber]

Several years ago while I was a sophomore in high school I took an intro to engineering class that included a somewhat extensive introduction to 3d modeling. With that knowledge I took as precise of measurements as I could manage with calipers of my Bach 24aw mouthpiece. I then made some alterations to it, I had no idea what I was doing at the time. Fast forward 4 years and I got access to a 3d printer so for only about a dollars worth of filament I printed the mouthpiece. It actually worked! There are lots of things to do to improve to where I'd actually use it but for a first iteration its pretty good.

Is the printer good enough that it’s smooth when it’s finished, or does it require more work??

Cool....

The print resolution is good enough for practical purposes but a bit of sanding does help with aesthetics.
