Try something new — a wild generative pegbox for the Modular Fiddle.

This pegbox is designed using Autodesk Generative Design, and algorithm based design method that creates uniquely organic geometry to support a given load condition.

It is designed to be used with traditional violin pegs. You may use wooden pegs or 3D printed pegs. While some users set up these pegboxes without specialized tools, I recommend that you use at least a pegbox reamer to help fit the pegs. A peg shaving tool is also very helpful.

There are two files included in the download. One is for FFF printing and has flat surfaces on the bottom for bed adhesion. The other is for resin or powder printing, and does not have flat surfaces.

FFF print settings for 0.4mm nozzle:

• 3 or more perimeters
• 60% or higher infill
• PLA, ABS or stronger

Powder or Resin — use a rigid high strength material.

USE AT YOUR OWN RISK! This part is experimental and its performance is highly dependent on print material, settings, and quality. OpenFab makes NO guarantees whatsoever of the safety, performance, or reliability of this part. LIKE SERIOUSLY IT WILL PROBABLY BREAK.
