I have a project for which I wanted some piano keys, so I created this OpenSCAD module to create them.
There's an option to label the note names on all of the white keys, but I don't have a dual extrusion machine available this weekend. I'll add a picture of labeled keys when I get a chance to print some.
piano.scad is the module... it uses bitmap.scad to render the note names, if you so wish.
piano_keys.scad is an example file, which prints one octave of keys, sized to easily fit just about any 3D printer, with an M3 hole at the top to put a rod through to hold them all together.
Add hardware to the back of them, and you can make this part of all kinds of awesome musical projects!
Options:
variable # of octaves
black keys/white keys/both
label notes on white keys
variable sizing and spacing
I design things in my free time, just for fun. If you like my stuff, send me some DOGE. It'll totally make my day! Thank you.
