About the Agogô
An agogô, the double bell used in capoeira and Brazilian music, which has West African roots. The designer, flecha-sz, made it for children's capoeira training. You print four parts in PLA at 20% infill with no supports: a handle, two bells and a striking stick.
To assemble, put an M4 screw into each end of the handle and screw a bell onto each end. The two bells are different sizes, so they give the agogô's usual high and low notes. The page doesn't include a sound demo.
