jumblies<p>Here is the 4th iteration after complaining that it doesn't know what C-Clamp is. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/openscad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>openscad</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/chatgpt5" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>chatgpt5</span></a></p>
jumblies<p>This is the third run through of an <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/openscad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>openscad</span></a> C-Clamp organizer by <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/OpenAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenAI</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/chatgpt5" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>chatgpt5</span></a> This is an unprintable object with floating pegs for stacking and I'm not even sure it knows what a C clamp is. </p><p>I think we're safe from an existential threat.</p>
jokeyrhyme<p>TFW you wipe your computer and install a different <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a> distribution, like you've done dozens of times before, secure in the knowledge that everything is backed up, but realise that this time you had some very recent work-in-progress <a href="https://aus.social/tags/OpenSCAD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenSCAD</span></a> files that are now gone forever</p>

OpenSCAD<p>Due to this topic coming up recently, we'll have a look at how <a href="https://floss.social/tags/OpenSCAD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenSCAD</span></a> supports typographic features some modern fonts have.

Jakub Klawiter :mastodon:<p>Pierwsza klamerka była za mała, więc zrobiłem drugą większą. Tym razem jest w niej więcej matematyki niż celowania na oko i suwmiarkę, ale o dziwo też się udało. :D</p><p>Kolejny krok to klateczka dla pszczelej mateczki… ;-)</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/DIY" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DIY</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/3dprint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>3dprint</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/openscad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>openscad</span></a></p>
Jasper 🍉<p>It seems like if the object is in the middle, you can't see it. <a href="https://mastodon.nl/tags/openscad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>openscad</span></a></p><p>used 1/F = 1/a + 1/b and ya/yb = -za/zb, basically.</p><p>But also a bit of a hack with the shapes, used the size changes to take an input shape of light, `hull`ing it to a central point and then adding `scale(-1)` which is does the end beyond the focus. The result is `intersection`ed to the relevant area.</p><p>The next input it made by using that shape and intersecting with the lens.(1/2)</p>
Matthias Dittgen :bc:<p>the basket works well hanging on a skadis wall with a standard hook, too. <a href="https://toot.community/tags/ikea" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ikea</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/hack" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>hack</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/skadis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>skadis</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/openscad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>openscad</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/3dprinting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>3dprinting</span></a></p>
Matthias Dittgen :bc:<p>Todays print worked well. Result is quite satisfying. Can't wait to do more with different parameters (sizes, rhythm, bands) <a href="https://toot.community/tags/3dprinting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>3dprinting</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/basket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>basket</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/openscad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>openscad</span></a></p>
Matthias Dittgen :bc:<p>btw. this is the model to print in <a href="https://toot.community/tags/openscad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>openscad</span></a></p>
Matthias Dittgen :bc:<p>Finally, I turned on the printer, watched sporadically for a while and enjoyed the successful print so far. Then I went to the grocery store, and when I came back, the model was lying behind the hotbed plate and the printer was busily extruding wafer-thin threads, unfortunately.<br>But I still like the unfinished result, enough to share with you. I'll try again tomorrow with a brim or mouse ears. <a href="https://toot.community/tags/3dprinting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>3dprinting</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/choctaw" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>choctaw</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/basket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>basket</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/openscad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>openscad</span></a></p>
OpenSCAD<p>Even though it has been a bit quiet here, <a href="https://floss.social/tags/OpenSCAD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenSCAD</span></a> development is going on including quite a number of first-time contributions. We'll look a some of the new features in the next couple of posts...</p><p>Let's start with a GUI improvement. It is now possible to define the behavior of mouse buttons using a predefined setup or by choosing an action for each mouse button directly. Many thanks to Harry Braviner who added this feature.</p>
Matthias Dittgen :bc:<p>Got it. Now I can just apply radius, height, numberOfSegments and rhythm to generically render basket walls. <a href="https://toot.community/tags/3d" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>3d</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/modelling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>modelling</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/3dprinting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>3dprinting</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/openscad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>openscad</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/math" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>math</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/basket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>basket</span></a> <a href="https://toot.community/tags/shape" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>shape</span></a></p>
miroben<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@fmn" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>fmn</span></a></span> That was quick! I'm still learning, but really like <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/openscad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>openscad</span></a> and I like it even more since I discovered <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BOSL2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BOSL2</span></a>. Here is one way to make the same object using this library:</p><p>include &lt;BOSL2/std.scad&gt;<br>$fn = ($preview ? 45 : 90);</p><p>vals=[360, 350, 1.5];<br>grid_size=[340,340];<br>hole_r = 2.75;</p><p>difference() <br>{<br> cuboid(vals, rounding=vals.z, except=BOTTOM, anchor=BOT);<br> grid_copies(size=grid_size, spacing=[10,10]) down(0.1) cylinder(r=hole_r, h=vals.z+0.2);<br>}</p>
Jonathan Lamothe<p><a href="https://social.jlamothe.net/search?tag=OpenSCAD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenSCAD</span></a> question:</p><p>if in wanted to emboss text around the outer rounded edge of a cylinder, how would I go about doing that? I don't know how to transform an object on a curve like that.</p><p><a href="https://social.jlamothe.net/search?tag=3DPrinting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>3DPrinting</span></a></p>
Stewart Russell<p>Whee! I just learned how to lay objects flat in OpenSCAD! It's neither easy nor fun, but it works.</p><p><a href="https://xoxo.zone/tags/OpenSCAD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenSCAD</span></a></p>
Filip M. Nowak<p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/openscad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>openscad</span></a> is ridiculous. 20 min (just 20 minutes!). of noob-adjusting examples from the web:</p>

Matthias Dittgen :bc:<p>so I came up with an enhancement with a larger spiral around the thread spiral and a handle.
