Hey, I'm looking to create a customizable Penrose triangle design in OpenSCAD, similar to the one I saw on Thingiverse (link: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2784682). I'd like it to be parametric, so I can easily adjust its size, height, and the thickness of the outlines.

Here's what I have in mind:

*   **Overall Structure:** The design should be a 2D shape that can be extruded to a specified height, essentially a "flat" Penrose triangle.
*   **Size:** The longest side of the triangle should be adjustable through a `max_size_in_millimeter` parameter. The shorter side should scale proportionally to maintain the triangle's overall shape.
*   **Height:** The height of the extruded model should be adjustable via a `model_height_in_millimeter` parameter.
*   **Outlines:** There should be both an outer and inner outline, with adjustable thicknesses via parameters `outline_size_in_millimeter` and `inline_size_in_millimeter`, respectively.
*   **Inner Outline Edges:** The ends of the inner outlines should have a rounded edge, controlled by an `inline_edge_radius_in_millimeter` parameter.
*   **Flipping:** A `flip_model` parameter (with values "yes" or "no") should allow the user to mirror the design along the Y axis.
*   **Base Points:** The core of the design uses a number of fixed points to define the shape. These points are pre-defined in the original design. It would be best to use these same points and scale them.
*   **Units:** All measurements should be in millimeters.

Could you generate the necessary OpenSCAD code for this, including all the parameters and calculations? I'm not sure how to scale the coordinates properly. I also want to ensure the proper use of difference and offset functions to create the outline. Please don't assume I have any code other than what is given in my request. I'd prefer the code to be in a single .scad file. Thanks.

Hey, I'm looking to create a parametric earbud holder that can be customized for different earbud sizes and personal preferences, and I'd like some help generating the OpenSCAD code. I've seen a few designs, but I'm hoping to make one that’s flexible enough for all my needs.

Essentially, I want a flat card that can hold earbuds and wind the cord around it. I'd like to be able to set a few key parameters, like the overall card size, the width of the slots for the cord, and the size of the holes for the earbuds. It would be ideal if I could choose between standard business card or credit card sizes, or define my own custom dimensions, including a corner radius for the edges.

For winding, I need a notch along one of the edges, and ideally, I could choose if it is on the left, right, or in the middle relative to the earbud holes. I'd also like to include an option for extra winding notches on the opposite side of the card and a slide-off notch on the winding side to make it easier to remove the cord. This slide notch should have options for either a straight or angled cut and an optional small tab to help keep the cord in place while winding. Maybe smaller additional winding notches for shorter cords? I'd also love to have an option to add small holes in the center to thread the cord through.

Finally, it would be great to add text onto the card, so the code needs to support different fonts.

I would like you to make sure the code is modular and that it uses the `build_plate.scad` and `Write.scad` libraries. I am expecting you to return a working SCAD file or files, not just snippets, and I'm not going to include those libraries in this message.

/* Catmull-Rom splines.
  An easy way to model smooth curve that follows a set of points.
  Do "use <tjw-scad/spline.scad>", probably works better than "include".
  Read the module comments below; basic usage is to pass an array of 2D points,
  and specify how many levels of subdivisions you want (more is smoother,
  and each level doubles the number of points) and whether you want a closed loop
  or an open-ended path.

  Issues:
    Many of my models using 'noodles' won't final-render due to internal OpenSCAD issues.
      particularly with Boolean operations.
    Udon example has rough elbows
      do we need to use quaternion interpolation? but there are inherent orientation issues in the example...
      Specifying orientation per-path-vertex may be the only complete solution.

  To do:
    make the cross-section a parameter
      and it could be made from a spline
      and it could interpolate (loft) between several splines, twist, scale
        mustache
    make a version that passes the diameter along with the vector of points
      interpolate it with the same function as for the points
    spline surface
    Consider whether the iterative refinement is appropriate
      Is control over "ease" or "tightening" around control points feasible/desirable?

  Spline implementation based on Kit Wallace's smoothing, from:
  http://kitwallace.tumblr.com/post/84772141699/smooth-knots-from-coordinates
  which was in turn from Oskar's notes at:
  http://forum.openscad.org/smooth-3-D-curves-td7766.html

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_Hermite_spline,

[User]
I'm looking to create a jig for making perfectly aligned dowel joints, specifically for using a router with a collet. I need to be able to customize this for different material widths, dowel spacing, and router collet sizes. I also want alignment pins for registration and the ability to adjust the number and spacing of these pins.

Here are the specifics I have in mind:

*   **Router Collet:** The jig needs a cutout to fit my router's collet. This needs to be a parameter I can adjust.
*   **Dowel Spacing:**  I'll be using two dowels for each joint, so I need to specify the distance between the centers of these dowels. This should also be a parameter.
*   **Material Width:** The thickness of the wood I'm using will vary, so this needs to be a parameter.
*   **Registration Plate:** I want a raised registration plate on top to align the pieces.  I need to adjust its thickness and height.
*   **Base Plate:**  There should be a base plate for stability. This needs to have adjustable thickness, width, and height. If I set the height to 0, I'd like it to automatically calculate based on the material width and registration plate thickness.
*   **Alignment Pins:** I'd like to have optional alignment pins (or holes, really) with an adjustable number of pins, the distance between the center of each pin and the center of the jig, and the diameter of the holes. I also need a recess for the pins.
*   **Logo:** It would be neat to have a logo on the side of the jig; that would be a parameter so I could include the logo. If the base plate width is less than the registration plate height, then the logo should be scaled based on the base plate width, otherwise it should be based on the height of the registration plate.
*   **Alignment Lines:** I need some engraved or embossed lines to aid with alignment of the jig and workpiece; I'd like both a center alignment line and an alignment line for the registration plate.

Could you generate an OpenSCAD file for this jig?  I'm happy to edit the file for my specific dimensions; I'm just looking for a solid starting point.

[User]
I'd like to create a customizable 2D bunny model, similar to the one described in the provided Thingiverse description and SCAD file. I want to be able to adjust the following parameters:

*   **Max Size:** The overall size of the bunny, based on the longest side. The other side should scale proportionally.
*   **Height:** The thickness of the model.
*   **Outline Thickness:** The thickness of the outer border.
*   **Inline Thickness:** The thickness of the inner cutouts.
*   **Inline Edge Radius:** The roundness of the ends of the inner cutouts.
*   **Flip:** Option to flip the model horizontally.

The bunny's shape is defined by a set of outer points (A1-A36) and inner points (B1-B41), which then form polygons (C1-C81). I'd need those points and polygon definitions to be included in the design, similar to the existing code.

I'm hoping you can generate a parametric OpenSCAD file (or files, if needed) that will allow me to create the bunny model with these adjustments. It should use the `linear_extrude` function and `offset` function to create the outline and the inner cutouts and differences, as it does in the provided SCAD file. Please, no external libraries should be used, since the current implementation does not use external libraries.

I'd like to design a customizable comb, similar to the one described in the Thingiverse link you gave. I need the following parameters to be adjustable:

*   **Profile:** The overall profile shape of the comb, with options for "none" (a flat extrusion), "wing" (a more contoured profile that combines multiple extrusions), and "full_3d" (a fully 3D shaped comb).
*   **Wedge Profile:**  The profile of a wedge cut out of the comb, with options "none", "teeth" and "full".
*   **Shape:** The base shape of the comb, with options for "bow", "rectangle", and "rounded_rectangle".
*   **Max Height:**  The maximum height of the comb in millimeters.
*   **Min Height:** The minimum height of the comb in millimeters.
*   **Teeth Depth:** The depth of the comb's teeth section in millimeters.
*  **Handle Depth:** The depth of the handle section in millimeters.
*  **Handle Teeth Gap:** The gap in millimeters between the teeth and handle sections.
*   **Tooth Width:** The width of each tooth in millimeters.
*   **Tooth Gap:** The gap between teeth in millimeters.
*   **Teeth Side Margin:** The margin in millimeters between the teeth and the side edge of the comb.
*   **Number of Teeth:** The number of teeth on the comb.
*   **Corner Radius:** The radius of the rounded corners in millimeters, when using the "rounded\_rectangle" shape.
*   **Personal Text:** A text string to be placed on the comb.
*   **Text Teeth Margin:** The margin between the teeth section and the personal text in millimeters.
*   **Font Size:** The size of the personal text's font.
*   **Font Family:** The font to be used for the personal text (e.g. "YellowTail").
*   **Quality:** The quality setting for circles and spheres, affecting the level of detail.

I'd like the comb to be generated using these parameters, and I need the code to include functions to handle all of the various profile and shape options. The code should also create a wedge cut-out on one side of the comb, and place the personal text on the handle area. I don't need any specific libraries except for the built-in OpenSCAD features.

Hey, I'm looking to design a modular desk tidy, and I've got a pretty specific idea in mind. I'd like the base unit to be a hexagonal prism, and I want to be able to connect multiple units together. The connections should be made with a lug and slot system on the vertical faces of the prism. I'm envisioning a system where the user can select which faces will have a lug, which faces will have a slot, and which will be plain.

Here are the parameters I'd like to control:

*   **`module_diameter`**: The diameter of the hexagonal base (vertex to opposing vertex). I'd like to be able to set this anywhere between, say, 10 and 140mm.
*   **`module_height`**: The height of each module. A range of 20 to 100mm, with increments of 10, would be good.
*   **`module_wall`**: The thickness of the module walls. This could be between 0.8 and 2.4mm, maybe with steps of 0.4mm.
*   **`slot_height`**: The height of the lugs and slots. I think a range of 2 to 40mm, in steps of 2, would be suitable.
*   **`clearance`**: The clearance between the lugs and slots. Something like 0.1 to 0.4mm in steps of 0.05mm would allow for some fine-tuning.
*   **`face_1`**, **`face_2`**, **`face_3`**, **`face_4`**, **`face_5`**, **`face_6`**: These six parameters should control the type of connection on each face of the hexagon. Each should have three options: "plain" for no connection, "lug" for a lug, or "slot" for a slot.

I think it would also be nice to have a module that is specifically designed to be a base - meaning it has slots all around. And maybe another that could act as a "top" piece with all lugs.

I'd like the generated code to be parametric so I can easily tweak the dimensions and face configurations, and I think it would be best if each module type (standard, base, and top) was a separate function. Also, I don't need any customizer stuff, just something that can be rendered directly. I don't really need comments in the code, but please keep it clean and readable. Thanks!

//
// To get a set that present plain faces on all the external edges

Hey, I'm looking to get a custom parametric box designed, and I need it in OpenSCAD. I've got a pretty good idea of what I'm after, but I'm not the best at SCAD code.

I want a rectangular box with a lid that fits using a snap-fit. The box itself should have some optional holes and slits. Here's the breakdown of the parameters I'd like to control, with some sensible starting values:

**Box Dimensions:**
*   `boxWidth`: Width of the box (e.g., 44.45)
*   `boxDepth`: Depth of the box (e.g., 44.45)
*   `boxHeight`: Height of the box (e.g., 21)
*   `floorThick`: Thickness of the box floor (e.g., 2.5)
*   `wallThick`: Thickness of the box walls (e.g., 2.0)
*   `cornerRadius`: Radius of the rounded corners on the box base and lid (e.g., 8.0)

**Lid Parameters:**
*   `lidLip`: How much the lid extends down past the top of the box (e.g., 2.0)
*   `lidThick`: Thickness of the lid itself (e.g., 2.5)
*   `lidGap`: The space between the lid and the box (this will help achieve the snap fit) (e.g., 0.5)

**Snap-fit Tabs:**
*   `tabWidth`: Width of the snap-fit tabs (e.g., 12)
*   `tabLength`: Length of the snap-fit tabs (e.g., 12)
*   `tabThick`: Thickness of the tab at its thickest point (e.g., 2.0)
*    `tabDepth`: How deep the snap in the tab is (e.g., 1.5)
*   `tabSnub`: The amount of the snap that is a slope rather than a straight edge (e.g., 1.5)

**Holes and Slits:**

*   **Side Hole:**
    *   `sideHoleDia`: Diameter of the side hole (e.g., 6.5)
    *   `sideHoleInset`: How far from the edge the side hole should be (e.g., 13.0)
    *   `sideHoleElev`: The height of the center of the side hole, (e.g., `floorThick + sideHoleDia/2 + 5`).
*   **Base Hole:**
    *   `baseHoleDia`: Diameter of the base hole (e.g., 7.0)
    *   `baseHoleInset`: How far in from the edge the base hole should be (e.g., 14.0)
*   **Side Slit:**
    *   `sideSlitDia`: Diameter of the circular part of the side slit (e.g., 4.0)
    *   `sideSlitDepth`: The total depth of the side slit (e.g., 10.0)
    *   `sideSlitInset`: How far the side slit is from the edge of the box (e.g., 24.0)

**Other:**
*   `facets`: Number of facets for curved objects (e.g., 120). This should be set as the `$fn` variable.

I'd like to use the following modules from a 2D morphology library: `outset`, `inset`, `fillet`, `rounding` and `shell`. I'm not sure if you have a standard 2D morphology library that you'd like to use, so just let me know which one you decide to use. I'm hoping that you'll write the code with a module for the entire box assembly, a module for just the box (minus lid) and modules for the individual features of the box and lid.

The box lid should be rotated 180 degrees around the x-axis and placed above the box with a gap of `lidLip`.

Let me know if you have any questions or need clarification on anything.

I need a design for a dish brush holder that can be 3D printed. I want it to be parametric so I can adjust the size for different brushes.

Here's a general idea:

It should have a baseplate that will be attached to the wall. I'd like the baseplate to have rounded corners. It should also have two pillars that rise up from the base, also with rounded features. These pillars should support a bridge that the brush handle will rest on. I'd prefer a simple curved bridge, something like a cylinder cut to fit. I want a little text on the base that says "Brush."

Specifically:

*   **Baseplate:** Should be a rounded rectangle, which means I need to use a `minkowski` with a `cube` and a `sphere` to get that effect.  I need to be able to set the width and depth (how far it extends out from the wall) as parameters. I would like to cut away a large chunk of the base to make it light.  The text "Brush" should be also extruded on the base.
*   **Pillars:** These should have a cylindrical base, and the pillar itself should be a bent, rounded rod. I will need to set how high the pillars extend upward and how far they lean. I’d also like to use `minkowski` to round off the pillars.
*  **Bridge:** The bridge should be a simple cut cylinder, and it should be supported by the pillars. I need to set the diameter and length of the bridge cylinder.

I will use superglue or double-sided tape to stick it to the wall, so no mounting holes needed.

I'm not sure exactly how the parameters should be defined, but I’m thinking something like width, depth, pillar height, lean angle, and bridge diameter and length. Also, I'd like to define the text that goes on the base. Can you design an OpenSCAD file for this? I would like the text to be centered on the base.

Okay, I'm looking to design some film carriers for my flatbed scanner, a Canon 9000F.  I've been working with some basic designs, but I need something more robust and parametric, so I can easily adjust for different film sizes.  Basically, the scanner has a backlight with a specific window area, and I need the carriers to hold the film flat and at a specific elevation above the glass to avoid Newton rings.

Here's the basic idea. The carrier needs to be a flat base with two main cutouts: one for alignment against the scanner's backlight window, and another, larger one for the film itself. The film cutout should have a raised portion (an elevation) so the film isn't directly on the base, and it needs some margin around it. I want to be able to specify the film dimensions, the elevation, and a couple of other key measurements.

I'll start with the 4x5 design as an example, but I need it to be truly parametric so I can easily generate carriers for 120, 135 and any random film size in mm.

Here are the parameters I'm currently using for my 4x5 carrier as a starting point:

*   `full_thickness`:  This is the overall thickness of the carrier base. I'm currently using 1mm, but I'd like to adjust it.
*   `elevation`: The height the film sits above the base.  Right now, I have it at 0.4mm.
*   `film_width`:  The width of the film; for 4x5, this is 101.6mm.
*   `film_height`: The height of the film, 127mm in this case.
*   `film_margin`: The margin around the film area in the cutout, 1.5mm.
*   `min_cover`: A minimum distance to the edge of the carrier, set to 10mm.

Then there are parameters relating to the scanner’s window:

*   `window_left`: Left edge of the scanner window, at 83mm.
*   `window_top`: Top edge of the scanner window, 34mm.
*   `window_width`: Width of the scanner window, 62mm.
*   `window_height`: Height of the scanner window, 228mm.

And finally the alignment window (the small cutout that aligns with the edges of the backlight area).
*   `align_window_left`: Left edge of the alignment window, 77mm.
*   `align_window_top`: Top edge of the alignment window, 9mm.
*   `align_window_width`: Width of the alignment window, 75mm.
*   `align_window_height`: Height of the alignment window, 8.5mm.

I then have some parameters that are calculated:

*   `full_width` = `align_window_left` + `align_window_width` + `min_cover`
*  `full_height` = `window_top` + `film_height` - `film_margin`\*2 + `min_cover`

The basic design uses a `difference()` to cut out the necessary areas from the full size of the carrier base. The cuts are made using `cube()` functions and positioning by `translate()`.

I have a separate design for 135 film where the main difference is that I need two cutouts for film strips, and that these film strips overlap the window of the scanner. Here are the parameters I am using for the 135 film carrier:

*   `film_strip`: The number of film strips supported in the carrier (1 or 2 for now)
* `film_width`: 35mm
* `film_height`: 38mm \* 4 (i.e. a 4 frame strip)
* `film_margin`: 5.5mm

I reuse the following parameters from the previous design: `full_thickness`, `elevation`, `min_cover`, `window_left`, `window_top`, `window_width`, `window_height`, `align_window_left`, `align_window_top`, `align_window_width`, and `align_window_height`. Similarly `full_width` and `full_height` are calculated.

So, ideally I'd like a single parametric scad file, maybe using modules and parameters to handle the different configurations for different film sizes. The 135 design is a slight departure but perhaps we can make that another module. Can you help me design this? I don't have any specific preference for libraries. If some libraries such as MCAD or BOSL2 are helpful for this, feel free to use them. I don't have these installed now, but I'm happy to install them.

Hey, I'm looking to create a customizable spacer for my projects, and I think OpenSCAD is the way to go. I'd like the spacer to have a central cylindrical body with an octagonal cross-section, and then a number of legs extending out from the base. I need to be able to set the diameter of the octagonal cylinder (measured side-to-side), its overall height, the diameter of the center hole, and the angle and height of the supporting legs. I also need to be able to select how many legs the spacer should have, with options for no legs, one leg, two legs in an L shape, two legs in an I shape, three legs, four legs, or eight legs.

The legs should have a supporting base as well, and the support structure should be the same thickness as the base. Each base should have a hole that lines up with the central one. The support leg itself will be like a trapezoid, angled down to meet the base. I'd like to specify the angle of the trapezoidal support leg and the support height; the base length will have to be calculated based on the support width, plus the hole diameter. The thickness of the leg and the support and base is related to the diameter of the octagonal cylinder. The base will be a small rectangular prism. It should have a thickness, with a length and width calculated from the support structure.

I need the design to be fully parametric and should be easy to adjust these parameters. Can you generate the OpenSCAD file(s) for me?

I need an OpenSCAD design for a toroid winding spool, and I'd like it to be parametric. It should be a flat, 2D shape that we then extrude to give it thickness. The basic shape will look like a rectangle with a bite taken out of each of the short ends; these bites should be inset by the same amount as the width of the body. Basically, the ends should look like mirrored 'L' shapes.

I want to be able to specify the following parameters:

*   `wire_length`: This is the length of wire that the spool will hold for *one complete wrap*. This should be a calculated value, based on the toroid size and number of windings needed, so this variable should be a length of wire.
*   `width`: The overall width of the spool. This is also how far the end cutouts are inset.
*   `thickness`: The thickness of the spool, after extrusion.

The design should calculate the length of the central rectangular portion, based on `wire_length`, `width`, and `thickness`. My current attempt is below, but I'd like to see a new clean version. It should be relatively simple to customize, and I'd like to have the design be reasonably compact and not over-complicated.

```
/* [Global] */
wire_length = 40;  // this is for one complete wrap on the spool
width = 10;
thickness = 1;

length = wire_length/2-thickness;

module spool ()
{

    linear_extrude (height = thickness)

    polygon (points = [
    [0,0],
    [width,width/2],
    [0,width],
    [length+width*2,width],
    [length+width,width/2],
    [length+width*2,0]
    ]);

}

spool();

Hey, I'm looking to design a parametric vase in OpenSCAD. I found this really cool design online, and I want to make something similar but with a bit more control. Basically, I want a vase with a star-shaped cross-section that twists as it goes up, and I'd like to be able to customize the shape and size of that star, the overall height, the diameter, the thickness of the walls, and the amount of twist.

Here's the gist of the parameters I need to control:

*   **`ground_plate_thickness`**: How thick the base of the vase should be.
*   **`basediameter`**: The outer diameter of the vase at its base.
*   **`wall_thickness`**: The thickness of the vase's walls.
*   **`height`**: The total height of the vase.
*   **`star_points`**: How many points the star cross-section should have.
*   **`indent`**: How "pointy" or indented the star should be (a lower value creates a deeper indent).
*   **`solid`**: Whether the vase should be solid (for printing in vase mode) or hollow (with actual wall thickness).
*   **`delta_h`**: The step size in height used to generate the shape.
*   **`pinch`**: Controls the narrowing of the vase toward the top (a ratio relative to base diameter).
*    **`twist`**: The amount of rotation the star cross-section should have as it travels up the vase.

The design should build by extruding star-shaped polygons at each `delta_h`, scaling each new extrusion according to the `pinch` function, and rotating by a fraction of the total `twist`. If it's a "solid" design, just do that extrusion all the way. If it's "hollow", then I need to remove a second star shape with adjusted diameter and wall thickness. The pinch function should use a sine wave, so the vase gets thinner and wider in the middle.

I also need a `star` module to generate the star shape from the points and an `rounded_regular_polygon` function that can create a regular polygon that can have rounded edges using `minkowski`. I don't need the rounded edges, but it would be nice to have the ability.

I think that covers it, let me know if you need any other information.
