Description
What's better than a whistle? A robot whistle! I print it standing on it's head on my cupcake and it comes out beautifully.
Instructions
If the whistle doesn't make any noise after it's printed run a small file through the hole you blow into until you've filed off any dangling strings of plastic blocking the hole. This whistle is peircingly loud.
If you're going to work from the sketchup file, you'll need to scale it to .05 to get it to print the correct size. The .stl has already been scaled to this.
The sketchup file was made from importing and cleaning up Madox's original flat whistle stl.

Arms doesn't print with 0.5 hotend, and it doesn't sound at all.
I printed the ones you see in the pictures with my cupcake which has a .5mm hot end. As for the sound, if your printer doesn't have good retraction and is leaving dangly threads inside it doesn't take much to make the whistle not sound..if you run a small file through the mouth and the end you blow into and clean out the dangly bits it should sound fine
