About the Flic page-turner pedal
Bluetooth page-turner pedals for sheet-music apps often cost over $100. A Flic smart button costs much less and already works with the foreScore app, so the designer printed a pedal housing for one, to turn pages hands-free while playing the piano.
The Flic sits on two small keyed nubs in the middle part, so you can still twist it off its base plate to change the battery. The top rests on the middle part, kept in place by a dovetail at the front and a central channel. The bottom is printed in flexible filament to grip the floor, and presses on with slightly oversized pegs. Top and middle were printed in PLA at 50% infill to give the pedal some weight. Print the top upside down to avoid supports.
