I made a new 3D-model. Letter beads! They fit nicely over drawstrings and are big enough to make cute key rings. They also look really cool without top and bottom layers, that way the infill shows.
I included my openSCAD script, so if someone wants a different font or size, that can be easily achieved.

I'm trying to come up with a good way of creating this in OpenSCAD... I have something using a bunch of hull'd cylinders but I'm wondering if there is a better/easier way to do it.

#openscad does anyone know of a recorder made in openscad ? Would want to make weird flutes but would like a working base to experiment with

Trocha sebepropagace:
Dělal jsem si držák na #ifixit Manta kit pod stůl. Teoreticky by to samozřejmě mělo udržet i ostatní kity, ale to nemám jak ověřit Případně je k dispozici i zdrojový soubor z #openSCAD pro úpravy (samozřejmě s komentáři, které snad dávají smysl).

playing with #openscad (lots of fun!) lead inevitably to having to get the printer working after a long break of downtime. I have PTSD from early days wondering how anyone ever got anything to print before #3dprinting became routine. Hoping the printer still remembers those days.

My toddler loves playing “kitchen”.

Recently he’s been wanting to make “cake” for us but he doesn’t have anything that resembles a cake in his toy chest. He loves his Velcro toys that he can chop apart with a toy knife.

Let’s make it with #3dPrinting!

I designed a simple 2 layer cake in #OpenSCAD with each slice being 45°. I’m printing the outer “frosting” with my SV08 and the inner “sponge” layers on my resurrected SV06 and a dab of superglue attached the layers to the frosting.

OpenSCAD 2021.01 now availabe on Haiku (64bit only for now).

Thanks to @joe for pointing this out and the pointer on building it for Haiku!

Thanks to @waddlesplash for poking me into looking to porting it to Haiku! :)

EDIT: after fixing CGAL for 32bit, OpenSCAD is now also available for that on Haiku.

Enjoy!

I made some tiny "nut knobs" for 3mm screws that we use on our laser cutter for the probe that we have to adjust all the time. Easy to grab with your fingers and loosen or tighten without a tool. (Though you can still use a tool.)

I'm working on a new parametric design to hold micro:bit boards... You can change the number of boards, space between them, and angle they insert... they also snap into place with a nice little "click" and don't fall out.

Last April I broke out a bunch of internal #OpenSCAD libraries from a project I'm working on into their own library set. I just made an update to one of those libraries, the collection of decoration and arrangement modules in openscad_annotations, that I'm pretty jazzed with.

If I open an @OpenSCAD file that lives in a certain place I get this dialog that shows up and then I click "Allow" and it shows up again over and over until I have to quit OpenSCAD.

I did a remix of an OpenScad script. I like this way of learning. Taking something apart, working out how it works and extending it.
This script does keyrings. My addition is the third line of text and the option to have different fonts and sizes for every line of text.

For those with a G4 Cube, you can now light it up from the bottom with this little base, on an idea by @xodium :
