For the last couple of days I've been working on an #OpenSCAD program to create custom #Pantorouter tenons. Set the tenon dimensions, the inner bit/bearing, outer bit/bearing, rows/columns, and it does all the math. But after printing out a full size paper preview I think what I want to do is going to be much bigger than the Pantorouter can handle. #woodworking
I'm feeling really good about my new LED art project. This is a collab with my partner Allie who did the illustration/vectors for the cloud. It'll have LEDs going under both layers, and then white opaque vinyl on top to give it a crisp edge and hide the coroplast ribs.
Per usual, this was designed in #inkscape and the inner layers were computed from that using #OpenSCAD. #ledart
One of the current book bundles at HumbleBundle contains 3 books by John Horvath and Rich Cameron featuring #OpenSCAD for visualization and examples (among 15 in total with various topics on electronics and robots).
Big thanks to @jcorbin for walking me through a ton of finer points of #openscad I've made my first #3dprinting model!
It's a little late for indie bookstore day but these are bookmarks for my local bookstore.
I'm testing a print in the only color PETG I've got, and will try a 2 color PLA in the morning. I think the inset one would look really good with the letters (and bottom of the bookmark) in black with a white top. 🤔
Tor prosty, długość to 16LU (lego unit, 16mm) podwójny zwykły prosty, czyli 256mm (a z wypustkami dodatkowe cm), dzięki ułożeniu po przekątnej da się ;)
Also, I dumped this publicly some time ago and didn't say anything about it, but:
Should you need #openscad models with accurate dimensions for various storage form factor devices, such as a 5.25" full height drive, or a 5.25" optical drive, or a 2.5" internal HDD, with a variety of connector locations, all direct from SNIA's online specifications, I got you:
Two #openscad models of a 3.5" internal hard drive, top and bottom. The bottom diagram is spun 180-degrees on its Z-axis, showing a carved out SCA-2 connector.
Straight Duplo track of 12 duplo studs, equal to about 120 LU (Lego Units, one is 1.6mm).
We (me & son) need them to build looooong bridges ;-)
This one is a test run. If it works more or less ok, i'm gonna print few more.
It was generated and fine tuned from a OpenSCAD model available on Thingiverse.
I have my own brick OpenSCAD script, which generates better print models, but my script is inferior in parametriztion and it's not that easy to integreate it.
It presents as #OpenSCAD which I love, only you write #Python instead of that C-ish stuff it uses, and if I read correctly it's got a better underlying render engine. Only heard about it because someone did a #Gridfinity reimplementation with it, and all things being equal I would definitely rather use that than devil-begotten, temple-beridden, snot-encrusted #Autodesk products.
I want to 3d print some button housings for tactile switches - the simple toggle/push buttons we see everywhere in electronics kits...
I actually eventually want to design something for one of those cheap matrix setups to go in.
So this morning I'm off to see what I can find, but if anyone already has an #OpenSCAD design that they can recommend with a good mechanism and mountings I could use as a starting point, I'd be very interested in hearing about it :)
Mój syn (3l) uwielbia labirynty, więc postanowiłem wydrukować mu sześciokątne klocki do układania labiryntów.
Na 1. zdjęciu pierwsze 4 klocki, każdy z trochę innymi parametrami ;-)
Całe szczęście autor udostępnił plik do OpenSCAD, bo okazuje się, że precyzja Prusa MK4 przy druku PTEG jest na tyle duża, że domyślne ustawienia zostawiają za duże odstępy pomiędzy heksami. Udało mi się chyba znaleźć kompromis w ustawieniach.
Wydrukowałem kilka klocków krawędzi na testy, są okej (zdjęcie nr 2).
I rewrote the OFF import in #OpenSCAD (because I thought it didn't work but it was just a scaling issue… though it ends up being useful because the old code depends on CGAL which they want to drop).
