#3DPNSpeakerCover "High Fidelity 3DPN Edition"

#3DPNSpeakerCover Design Contest submission "High Fidelity 3DPN edition"

Dear Maker,

This design is dedicated to the #3DPNSpeakerCover contest, but can of course be used freely for your own making. This design is probably quite difficult to print but I would love to see how more advanced pinters (e.g. Resin or even something else) would handle this task. Here are some thoughts I had behind the "High Fidelity" speaker cover project:

The goal I tried to reach is to combine both elegant curves and straight lines into one design, which is quite a contrast pair on itself. The curves represent sound waves coming from the speaker meanwhile the hexagon pattern should provide a futuristic touch. The amplitude of the waves is modeled based on the golden ratio which I was quite happy to experiment with. However the wavy design on itself would probably impede the sound quality, rathen than enhance it, so the hexagonal pattern ensures that enough air (and therefore sound) is comming through the speaker cover. The thinner waves do have the letters "3 D P N" embossed but I will also upload a design without the embossing for everyone to enjoy :)

Here are some specs about the design:
- this design is suited primarly for the "SEAS H1456-08 ER18RNX" speaker but can also be used for any other which fits the hole dimensions and spacing
- Outer circle diameter: 178 mm
- Inner circle diameter: 154 mm
- 6 Holes equally spaced on a 166 mm diameter circle
- each hole has an offset of 8 mm to the lower rim of the big circle
- each hole is 5 mm in diameter all the way through and 9 mm in d from the top
- the screw would hold the speaker cover on a 5 mm recess inside the hole

A big thanks to Joel (aka 3DPN) for inspiring us to learn 3D design overall and for giving us the opportunity to be a part of this contest. Additionally a big thanks to Sophy and Just for judging the contest. Good look to everyone and keep on making! :)

"High Fidelity" Speaker Cover with NO embossing

This is the non-embossed version of the 3DPN Speaker Cover for the #3DPNSpeakerCover contest.

Stay safe everybody and keep on making!
