Bernadac explains that:<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\">\u201cThe goal was to create a unique design, inspired by the shape of a traditional violin, and refining the forms and supports to obtain a more aesthetic design, simpler, lighter and transparent.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>He goes on to say that:\u00a0<span style=\"color: #808080;\">&#8220;Our choice of 3d-printing technology is stereolithography because of its exceptional printing definition and the resistance of its printed objects.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The violin is not completely 3D printable. Parts such as the strings and the tuning pegs were not printed. The result of the 3Dvarius, is a wacky and beautiful looking violin that play amazingly well, as you can hear\/see\u00a0in the video below:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"474\" height=\"267\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gF0pOUBS3sg?start=41&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In recent years musicians have increasingly started to experiment with using 3D printing technologies (predominantly FDM\/FFF) to create musical instruments of all sorts. 3D printing instruments provides flexibility in colour, shape, and sound.
