What is a Denden Daiko?
A Denden Daiko is a small hand-held drum with beads attached to strings on both sides. When you rotate your wrist, the beads hit the drum surfaces, creating a rhythmic "den-den" sound - hence the name!

- Authentic traditional Japanese toy design
- Fun for children and adults alike
- Great cultural educational tool
Printing Instructions:
- Print with your preferred settings
- The print will pause before the drum closes - this is intentional!
- Thread string through the holes on both sides and tie inside the drum
- Resume printing to complete the model
- Adjust string length so the beads hit the center of the drum faces
Materials Needed:
- Your 3D printer
- Filament of your choice
- String or thin cord
Enjoy this piece of Japanese cultural heritage in your home!
