Cymbal Sleeve
Cymbal Sleeve

Percussionists, protect your cymbal mounting holes from becoming "pear shaped" and refresh your tired cymbal sleeves today with this 3D printed version!
I made a minor design change to optimize this part for 3D printing and added a chamfer from the base to the sleeve since this is the likely failure area due to how the layer lines are oriented. This does not affect fit or performance, the felt sleeve the cymbal rests on easily accounts for the small difference.
You can see in the pictures that the injection molded black sleeve is starting to wear out. The white sleeve is the 3D printed version.
I have Zildjian and Pearl stands, but these should fit most cymbals and cymbal stands.
I printed this in ABS. PLA would likely work but has not been tested.
Print with 100% infill, no supports needed.
