Description

Please also check out my latest design, a Long Range Dog Whistle at 7,000 Hz. Please download here.

I have also developed Ultrasonic dog whistles at even higher frequencies, which you can find here.

After a lot of fine work and countless test prints, I proudly present the first reliably functioning 3D printable Ultrasonic Whistle. With a powerful blow, it breaks the barrier of 20 kHz that separates ultrasound from “normal” sound.

 

You'll probably think that this whistle isn't working - but that's because humans (especially as they get older) hear higher tones less loudly or not at all - unlike many animals! I therefore recommend a frequency measurement app for testing. I use this android app.

 

WARNING:
This whistle is not a toy! It's very loud which can harm the ears, so please protect your ears and don't use it near other people or animals!

 

How to print:

First of all: this whistle has very small structures inside - corresponding to the short wavelength of ultrasonic sound. For successful printing, your printer should be well calibrated and work precisely. Use a line width of 0.4 mm and a layer height of 0.2 mm, 8 top layers and 8 bottom layers. The whistle requires correct positioning of the Z-seam - it shouldn't be placed in the narrow air passages inside the whistle.

Print slowly to achieve sharp edges!

I went into this skeptical as all hell. Is this really going to print a whistle that I can't hear and my dogs can? The answer is YES, it absolutely did, and it absolutely works. I blew it, both of my dogs left the room, 42 year old me heard nothing, my spouse who is 5 years younger said he 'heard the feeling' of the whistle and it was unpleasant so watch out for that apparently, haha (I think it is a pressure feeling). Very cool.

I'll just have to assume it's working. My ears pop and my dogs look at me, so that's a win. I did the single color print to make it quickly.
