You can find original replacement parts for your KUN Rest. But if you are a maker and you happen to have TPU filament at home here is a fast replacement method. The model contains four parts that are glued together. Part 1-3 are printed in rigid material while part 4 touches the violin and needs to be printed in soft material. You may have to carve the hole in part 1 minimally larger with a small knife so that it can be pressed neatly onto the brass head.

Depending on the material, printer settings and glue you use, the printed part may be less stable than the original. Be sure to check that everything fits well before each play. My violin almost fell off my shoulder when the original clamp broke. Use this part at your own risk.

As a trained goldsmith with years of experience in 3D design, I work with great care. If something does not fit, please feel free to contact me. And if you are happy with the model leave me a happy little comment. I'm very happy to see your printed version, feel free to post on instagram (@sarahcadschmid) or email me.
