This is a collection of FreeCAD files that will help you to 3D-print a part of a new type of organ pipe (the mechanism was patented in 1993 by Ernst Zacharias, Hohner), to be used with one or two piece(s) of tube.

Please start by adding the desired measurements into the spreadsheet. Then export the upper and lower part separately for printing.

The point of ‘pitch tester’ is having it easier to figure out which reed you hold in your hands. It works best using a reed a little bit lower (1-3 semitones) than the resonator. You probably only need one, or one per person (hygienic reasons).

There are flue pipes as well.

I'd be happy to hear about your instrument!
