My 3D printer was making a weird whistling noise and I couldn't figure out what was causing it. And then it hit me: it was literally whistling. As in, because of the shape of the model, air was blowing through it out of the print head fan and causing it to make a whistling sound whenever the nozzle was over certain spots.

in reply to @bruno's post:
I wonder how hard it would be to make a model that whistles a song while it's being printed (probably near the end of the print, since you'd need to make the parts that whistle first)
Yeah I was wondering the same thing. Probably not hard to do but it wouldn't work the same across different models of printer?
