The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I should be getting my new 3D printer in tomorrow (Ender 3 V2) and was wondering if anybody made anything cool, phonograph wise, with theirs. I seen this one guy made a simple piece that allows you to play music from your phone through your record player.

Great interesting, informative and well presented video - and the person's voice is brilliant.

I have seen someone on here create soundboxes / reproducers using a 3d printer incidentally. I can't remember the link though but they looked very good indeed.

That is very interesting. I would love to get my hands on the file that was used to create a new soundbox. I wonder if the kind of filament would affect sound quality at all. I not good enough with CAD software to create my own, but maybe one day.

The colleague who makes the soundboxes is in the forum. I believe he's mrrgstuff

and he's also in YT, I believe the same name. He has interesting videos showing his designs. He has posted them in the forum.

Thanks for the mention, Inigo
I've recently built another 3D printed soundbox of a new design. I'm not completely happy with it yet, but it has certain improvements on my last design. I have done a video of it here:

There is also somebody else on this forum who has done a whole range of Expert style soundboxes. From memory I think their username is 'Physicist', I will try and check.
Thanks mrrgstuff
