The exterior could be shaped like anything you want. Even the Empire State Building (by Hoeken http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:625 ) As if making music wasn't beautiful enough, now this recorder can sit on your shelf as an objet d'arte. 3D printing allows designs to go beyond functional to decorative. Instructions Print empirerecorderV2.stl with high infill. (Alternately you can print the parts separately.) Sharpen the edge of the lip to a fine point. Assemble. To play: Remove the spire before attempting to play. Rotate the mouthpiece 180 degrees. Twist the foot to adjust for pinky finger placement. The top of the body and the mouthpiece is connected with a longer connecter to allow for some tuning. Note that if you start with all holes covered and remove them one-by-one that the high notes are going to sound flat. That is normal. To get the proper tones for all the notes use the key chart on en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recorder#Recorder_fingering . Practice until you can play "New York, New York".
