Okay, I'm looking to design a filament bend preventer for my 3D printer, and I'd like to make it highly customizable using OpenSCAD. I've already got a basic concept and some initial parameters in mind, and I'm hoping you can help me create a parametric design file.

The main idea is a truncated cone shape, basically a cylinder with different radii at the top and bottom. I need a hole through the center for the filament to pass through, and then two cutouts on opposite sides to provide clearance for the printer's hotend components.

Here are the parameters I'd like to control:

*   **`r1`**: The radius of the bottom of the cone (larger radius).
*   **`r2`**: The radius of the top of the cone (smaller radius).
*   **`r3`**: The radius of the hole for the filament.
*   **`h`**: The overall height of the cone.
*   **`r4`**: The radius of the left cylinder cutout. This cutout should be centered a distance `25` away from the center along the Y-axis and centered along the X-axis at `-r4-r3/2`. The bottom edge of this cylinder should be at a distance `clear1+r4` along the Z-axis above the origin. The cylinder should project a distance of `50` from the origin.
*  **`r5`**: The radius of the right cylinder cutout. This cutout should be centered a distance `25` away from the center along the Y-axis and centered along the X-axis at `r5+r3/2`. The bottom edge of this cylinder should be at a distance `clear2+r5` along the Z-axis above the origin. The cylinder should project a distance of `50` from the origin.
*   **`clear1`**: The vertical clearance between the bottom of the left cutout cylinder and the top of the printer's hotend (I'll need this to avoid collisions).
*   **`clear2`**: The vertical clearance between the bottom of the right cutout cylinder and the top of the printer's hotend (again, to avoid collisions).

I want all these parameters to be easily adjustable in the OpenSCAD file. The cutouts should be cylinders that are rotated 90 degrees about the x-axis. The main shape should be a cylinder with one end radius `r1` and the other end radius `r2` along the z-axis. There should be a center hole which extends from above the main cone to below the main cone.

I think that should cover all the basics. I am primarily using OpenSCAD but I'm comfortable importing and using external libraries, if there are any that might make creating this design easier or cleaner. I am not using any external libraries at this time. Could you generate an OpenSCAD file for me based on these parameters and design specifications?

Okay, I'm looking for an OpenSCAD design for a customizable tie clip. I want to be able to put text on it, and adjust its dimensions to fit different tie sizes and personal preference.

Here's what I have in mind:

**Basic Features:**

*   **Text Input:**  I need to be able to specify the text that will be embossed onto the tie clip.
*   **Text Placement:** I need to be able to control where the text sits on the tie clip, with a horizontal and vertical offset.
*   **Text Font:** I'd like to have the ability to choose a different font. I'm fine with it using some included .dxf files, like what I've seen in the `write` library. I'd like to include options like "Orbitron", "BlackRose", "Braille", "knewave", and a default font named "Letters".
*   **Height Scale:** I need a way to scale the height of the entire clip and the text to fit different ties.

**Detailed Design Parameters:**

*   **Clip Height:** The overall height of the tie clip.
*   **Clip Width:** The width of the tie clip.
*   **Clip Thickness:** The thickness of the material used to form the main body of the clip.
*   **Front Length:** The length of the part of the clip that will be visible.
*   **Back Length:** The length of the part of the clip that will be hidden behind the tie.
*   **Tooth Spacing:** The spacing between the teeth on the back part of the clip for grip.
*   **Tooth Size:** The size of each tooth used for gripping the tie.
*   **Clip Gap:** The space between the inner sides of the tie clip.

**Clip Structure:**

*   The tie clip should be based on a rounded rectangle, formed by a cylinder with a rectangle attached.
*   It should have a hollow center with walls.
*   The back of the clip should have little teeth that grip the fabric.
*   The text should be embossed on the front of the clip.

**Libraries:**

* I know that I'll need to use the `write` library for the fonts to work.

I want all these parameters to be easily adjustable in the OpenSCAD customizer. I think that should cover everything. Can you generate the code for me?

Okay, I'm looking to design a simple, customizable terrarium base using OpenSCAD, and I have an existing file that gets pretty close. I want to make sure it's easy to adjust for different sizes of glass containers I might have.

Here's what I need:

*   **Base:** A flat, circular base. I need to be able to adjust the diameter and height of this base.
*   **Main Body:** A frustum (truncated cone) shape that sits on top of the base. This needs to have independently adjustable bottom and top diameters, as well as an adjustable height.
*   **Wall Thickness:** The thickness of the walls of the frustum needs to be adjustable separately, to allow for thicker, sturdier walls or thinner, more delicate ones.
*   **Build Plate:** The code should include the `build_plate.scad` library, as this makes sure I can visualize the size within a real printer, but it shouldn't contribute to the final object. It should be controlled by the selector variable.
*   **Parametric:** I need all the main dimensions to be controlled by variables so I can easily adjust the size of the design to fit different glassware.

My existing file, `terra.scad`, already implements the frustum shape and uses the `build_plate.scad` library, but I need to be sure that all of the sizes of all of these features are easily changed with parameters. Here is the `terra.scad` file:

```
//	Thingiverse Customizer Template v1.2 by MakerBlock
//	http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:44090
//	v1.2 now includes the Build Plate library as well

//	Uncomment the library/libraries of your choice to include them
//	include <MCAD/filename.scad>
//	include <pins/pins.scad>
//	include <write/Write.scad>
	include <utils/build_plate.scad>

//CUSTOMIZER VARIABLES

//	Diameter of the base
base_diameter = 100;

//	Thickness of the base
base_height = 2;

//	Wall Thickness
wall_thickness = 2;

// Height
height = 20;

// Bottom Diameter
bottom_diameter = 95;

// Top Diameter
top_diameter = 90;

//	This section is creates the build plates for scale
//	for display only, doesn't contribute to final object
build_plate_selector = 0; //[0:Replicator 2,1: Replicator,2:Thingomatic,3:Manual]

//	when Build Plate Selector is set to "manual" this controls the build plate x dimension
build_plate_manual_x = 100; //[100:400]

//	when Build Plate Selector is set to "manual" this controls the build plate y dimension
build_plate_manual_y = 100; //[100:400]

//CUSTOMIZER VARIABLES END

top_radius = top_diameter / 2;
bottom_radius = bottom_diameter / 2;
base_radius = base_diameter / 2;

//	This is just a Build Plate for scale
build_plate(build_plate_selector,build_plate_manual_x,build_plate_manual_y);

cylinder(base_height, base_radius, base_radius);

difference() { translate([0,0,base_height]) cylinder(height,bottom_radius, top_radius);  translate([0,0,base_height]) cylinder(height + 1,bottom_radius - wall_thickness, top_radius - wall_thickness); }
```

So, I would like an OpenSCAD file that incorporates these features, and makes all of these variables customizable.

Okay, I've got a pretty specific idea for a bike bottle mount and I need a parametric OpenSCAD file. I've seen a design that's close, but I need it more flexible. I'm aiming for something that can be easily customized for different bottle sizes and bike frame configurations, using either screws or zip ties for mounting.

Here's what I'm thinking:

**Core Structure:**

*   **Bottle Clamp:** The main body should be a clamp that holds the bottle, basically a cylinder with a slot cut out to allow the bottle to be inserted. I need to be able to adjust the diameter of the cylinder to fit different bottles, as well as the overall length of the clamp, and the length of any extensions at either end. There should also be the ability to control the thickness of the material around the bottle and the width of the slot in the clamp.
*   **Frame Mount:** This is the part that attaches to the bike frame. It needs to be configurable for both flat surfaces and round frames. For round frames, I'd need to adjust the diameter. The depth of the mount (how far it extends from the bottle clamp) and the overall width should be adjustable too.
*   **Triangular Cutout:** There's a triangular cutout in the clamp that can be angled and positioned. This cut should also have its size and position parametrically defined.

**Mounting Options:**

*   **Screws:** I'd like the option to use screws for mounting. The number of screws should be adjustable, as well as their distance from each other and their vertical position. I'll also need to be able to adjust the screw diameter, screw head diameter, and screw head length (the depth of the countersink). A hex nut needs to be included.
*   **Zip Ties:** Alternatively, I want to be able to use zip ties. This will need to be configurable for both linear and radial arrangements. I need parameters to control the number of zip tie tunnels, their distance from each other, their vertical position, their width and height. For radial tunnels, I need control over their radius (presumably based on the frame diameter and mount depth).

**Additional Features:**

*   **Frame Ring Cutout:** I need the option for a frame ring cutout, which would essentially cut material out of the mount around the bike frame itself. This would be especially useful for making sure the mount doesn't interfere with things like front derailleur clamps. This cutout needs parameters for height, thickness, and Z position.
*   **Preferred Printing Position:** There should be an option to rotate the model for a preferred printing position, where the top extension of the clamp is equal to the top extension of the frame. This would help avoid the need for support structures in the printer.
*   **Debug View:** A visual debugging toggle (like SHOWCUTOUTS in that other design I saw) would be extremely helpful, too. This should show the cutouts used to create features.

**Key Parameters and Variables:**

Here’s a summary of the parameters I would like to control:

*   **General:**
    *   `SHOWCUTOUTS` (0/1, Debug view toggle)
    *   `PUTINPRINTPOS` (0/1, enable preferred print position)
    *   `CYLPREC` (Resolution of cylinders/spheres)
*   **Bottle Clamp:**
    *   `bottleDia` (Diameter of the bottle)
    *   `clampLen` (Length of the clamp)
    *  `clampExtTop` (Length extension at the top of the clamp)
    *  `clampExtBot` (Length extension at the bottom of the clamp)
    *   `clampThick` (Thickness of the material around the bottle)
    *   `clampSlot` (Width of the clamp slot)
    *   `clampBotDia` (Diameter of the hole in the bottom of the clamp)
    *   `clampCutAngle` (Angle of the triangular cutout)
    *   `clampCutOffZ` (Z offset position of triangular cutout)
    *   `clampCutOffX` (X offset position of triangular cutout)
*   **Frame Mount:**
    *   `frameDia` (Diameter of the bike frame, 0 for flat mount)
    *   `frameMountWidth` (Width of the frame mount)
    *   `frameMountDepth` (Depth of the frame mount)
    *  `frameExtTop` (Length extension of frame mount at the top)
    *  `frameNutDia` (Diameter of the frame's nut)
    *  `frameNutHeight` (Height of the frame's nut)
*  **Frame Ring Cutout:**
     * `frameRingCutHeight` (Height of the frame ring cutout)
     * `frameRingCutThick` (Thickness of the frame ring cutout, 0 to disable)
     * `frameRingCutOffZ` (Z position of the frame ring cutout)

*   **Screw Mounting:**
    *   `screwNumber` (Number of screws)
    *   `screwDistance` (Distance between screws)
    *   `screwLowerHeight` (Z position of the lowest screw)
    *   `screwDia` (Diameter of the screw)
    *   `screwHeadDia` (Diameter of the screw head)
    *   `screwHeadLen` (Length of the screw head)
*   **Zip Tie Mounting:**
    *   `zipType` (0=off, 1=linear, 2=radial)
    *   `zipNumber` (Number of zip tie tunnels)
    *   `zipDistance` (Distance between zip tie tunnels)
    *   `zipLowerHeight` (Z position of the lowest zip tie tunnel)
    *   `zipWidth` (Width of the zip tie tunnel)
    *   `zipHeight` (Height of the zip tie tunnel)
    *   `zipRadius` (Radius of the zip tie tunnel)
    *   `zipOffX` (Additional X offset of the tunnel)

**Design Considerations:**

*   The design should be fully parametric, so I can easily adjust the mount for different bottles and frames.
*   It should be clear what parameters to change.
*   The code should be well commented for easy modification.

I believe this covers everything. Please let me know if you have any questions, and please let me know if this is more than you can handle. I'm excited to see what you come up with!

// Bike Bottle Mount, V1.0
// 5/2013, FMMT666(ASkr)
//
//
// NOTES:
//
//  - The "preferred printing position" (enabled if "PUTINPRINTPOS = 1") requires
//    that "clampExtTop" equals "frameExtTop".
//    Otherwise you'll need to enable support structures in your printing app.
//    Also pay attention to the angle (and position) of the "triangular cutout"
//    parameters ("clampCut..." variables).
//    Use "SHOWCUTOUTS = 1" for a better view.
//
//  - "SHOWCUTOUTS" set to 1 turns on visibility for some cutting objects.
//    Use this while tuning the parameters until everything makes sense, but
//    disable it for export.
//
//  - For a flat frame/wall/whatever mount, set "frameDia = 0".
//
//  - The bottle mount can be fixed with an arbitrary amount of screws or zip ties.
//    Screw parameters start with "screw", the zip tie variant can be tuned
//    with all the "zip" parameters.
//    The "zip tie tunnel" can be radial or linear.
//    Notice that the radial type only makes sense if "frameDia" is in the range
//    of "frameMountWidth". Use "SHOWCUTOUTS = 1" to see what's going on.
//    Turn on/off screws by setting "screwNumber".
//    The zip tie tunnels can be activated by setting "zipType" to either "1" (linear)
//    or "2" (radial). A "0" turns this featrue off.
//
//  - Pay attention to the difference between:
//      "frameMountDepth" - "screwHeadLen" - "frameNutHeight"
//    This is the amount of material left between the screw head (or washer)
//    and the frame of the bike. If the sum of "screwHeadLen" and "frameNutHeight" is
//    equal or exceeds "frameMountDepth", the only thing you'll get is a big hole.
//    I recommend at remaining thickness of at least 2mm. E.g.:
//
//      mount      height  of     height of     remaining
//                 screw head     frame nut     material
//       13mm   -     6mm      -    5mm      =     2mm
//
//  - The "frameRingCut" cuts away an additional amount of material.
//    Useful if any other clamp is in the way.
//    It is highly recommended to turn on "SHOWCUTOFFS" while modifying the ring's
//    parameters.
//    NOTE: The "frameRing" cutout is only useful if "frameDia" > 0.
//
//  - Don't panic...

Okay, I'm looking to get a parametric OpenSCAD file designed for a cord stopper. I have an existing design, but I want to make it more flexible and robust.

Essentially, the cord stopper needs to have a housing that the main plunger slides into. The plunger will have a cylindrical shape with a flattened portion on one side for the housing to wrap around. There will be a space in the housing for the cord to pass through, and potentially teeth on either one or both sides of this space to grip the cord better. I want to be able to configure whether I have teeth, and if so whether they are on one side or two. The plunger will have a "snap" feature (achieved with a small offset square tab) and a sort of circular spring to make it hold tight into the housing, I think it's called a rotary snap mechanism. Finally, I also need to configure the number of spring loops, and the width of those spring loops to control the springiness of the stopper.

Here are the dimensions and features I need to be able to control:

**Overall Dimensions:**

*   **`Stopper_Length`:** The overall length of the stopper.
*   **`Housing_Width`:** The width of the housing that the plunger fits into. I need to specify this to determine the overall height of the assembled unit. This needs to be less than the overall height.
*   **`Stopper_Thickness`:** The overall thickness of the stopper.
*   **`Stopper_Spring_Width`:** The width of the spring loop which I use to add more or less springiness to the stopper.
*   **`Number_of_Springs`:** Either 1 or 2, specifying how many spring loops the plunger has.
*   **`Twist_Snap`:** This controls the tightness of the snap rotation when the plunger is inserted into the housing. A smaller value will make it easier to install but might not be as tight, larger might break the spring.

**Cord Hole Dimensions:**

*   **`Stopper_Hole_Width`:** The width of the hole for the cord to pass through.
*   **`Stopper_Hole_Length`:** The length of the cord hole.
*   **`Teeth`:** An integer of 0, 1, or 2. 0 means no teeth, 1 means teeth on one side, and 2 means teeth on both sides.

**Printer Settings (but still parameters):**

*   **`Clearance`:** A small clearance value, it should be possible to change to allow for different manufacturing tolerances between the housing and plunger.

I'd also like to be able to specify the `$fs` for rendering the number of facets.

The design should produce two main parts, the "stopper" or plunger, and the housing. I should be able to print them separately. I would also like to see a 3rd view where they're put together.

I do not need any external libraries. This all seems fairly straightforward in stock OpenSCAD.

Can you create the parametric OpenSCAD file for this?

Okay, I need help designing a replacement tip for my Fitbit One clip. The plastic tip broke off, and I've been trying to make something in OpenSCAD, but I'm not very good at it. I have a basic shape that's close, but I need it to be parametric so I can tweak it easily, and I'd like it to be more robust.

Here's what I've got so far, which makes a basic "boat hull" shape. I'm trying to make the main body of the clip that the metal part of the fitbit clip would fit into.

```
width=3;
length=14;
height=8;
tab_width=1;
tab_length=7;
tab_height=6;
resolution=50;

$fn=resolution;

difference(){
  hull(){
    cube ([width,length-width*2,height-width],center=true);
    translate ([0,-length/2+width/2,height/2-width/2])
      sphere (r=width/2,center=true);
    translate ([0,length/2-width/2,height/2-width/2])
      sphere (r=width/2,center=true);
    translate ([0,-length/2+width/2,-height/2+.5])
      cylinder (r=width/2,h=1,center=true);
    translate ([0,length/2-width/2,-height/2+.5])
      cylinder (r=width/2,h=1,center=true);
}
  translate ([0,0,(tab_height-height)/2])
    cube ([tab_width,tab_length,tab_height],center=true);
}
```

Here are the things I want to change:

1.  **Parametric Design:** I want all the key dimensions to be easily adjusted through variables at the top of the file, including:
    *   `width`: The width of the main body.
    *   `length`: The length of the main body.
    *   `height`: The height of the main body.
    *   `tab_width`: The width of the tab that will fit into the metal clip.
    *   `tab_length`: The length of the tab.
    *   `tab_height`: The height of the tab.
    *   `resolution`: The resolution of the curves, currently set by `$fn`.
    *   `hull_radius`: The radius of the spheres/cylinders that make the rounded edges for the hull, currently calculated based on the `width`. I want this to be a variable as well.

2.  **Improved Tab Design:** The current tab is just a cube. I would like the tab to have a slightly tapered shape to make it easier to insert it into the metal clip, and a rounded edge at the end. Ideally, the taper could be controlled by a variable too (`tab_taper`). It would taper from `tab_width` at its base to `tab_width` - `tab_taper` at its tip. The rounded edge should be controlled with a `tab_edge_radius` variable.

3. **Hole for Rivet (optional):** My metal clip has a small hole in the side that the plastic rivet fit into. I'd like to add the *option* to add a hole through the base of the hull that corresponds with the metal clip's rivet hole. It would be great if this was controlled by a variable (`rivet_hole_diameter`) and a boolean flag (`has_rivet_hole`) to enable it. I know exactly where this hole should be located, so I don't think a location variable is needed.

4. **Library Usage (optional):** I've seen some fancier functions in the BOSL and BOSL2 libraries.  If there are features there that would make this easier to implement, I'm open to using them. I'm particularly thinking about the chamfer feature in BOSL2, which might be helpful. I am not committed to BOSL or BOSL2, but it seems common and might be useful.

The overall goal is a clip that's easy to customize, fits securely, and is stronger than the original plastic tip. Can you help me create a parametric version of this with those features, possibly using features in the BOSL or BOSL2 libraries? Thanks in advance!

Okay, I'm trying to design some replacement protectors for the metal rods on my drum hardware - things like bass drum spurs and conga stand legs. They usually have rubber caps on them, but those often break or fall off, and I'd like to be able to print some replacements. I’ve made a very rudimentary version, but it’s pretty basic and I think it can be improved.

My current design is essentially a cylinder with a hemispherical cap on the end, all hollowed out to fit over the metal rod. I’ve used a `difference()` to create the hollow space in the cylinder and also to cut away the bottom of the sphere. I've got a few parameters defined for things like the hole diameter (which is the diameter of the rod), the height of the cylinder, and the wall thickness. I also have a hidden parameter to trim the base of the sphere so that it sits properly on the cylinder.

Here's what I’m looking for in a design:

1.  **Parametric Design:** The design should be parametric so that I can easily adjust it for different rod diameters and lengths. Specifically, I’d like parameters for:
    *   `hole_diameter`: The diameter of the metal rod the protector will fit over.
    *   `height`: The overall height of the cylindrical part of the protector (excluding the dome).
    *   `wall_thickness`: The thickness of the walls of the protector.
    *  `cap_type`: a selection parameter, with options of `flat`, `dome`, and `rounded`.
        *   If `cap_type` is set to `flat`, a flat cap, perpendicular to the long axis of the cylinder, is created.
        *   If `cap_type` is set to `dome`, a hemisphere should finish the cylinder.
        *   If `cap_type` is set to `rounded`, a smoothly rounded shape should finish the cylinder (like an extruded torus).
    * `rounding_radius`: a parameter for `rounded` cap_type, which sets the radius of the torus extrusion.
    *   `trim_amount`: How much the bottom of the dome/round is trimmed off to match the top of the cylinder. This parameter only applies to the `dome` and `rounded` cap types.
2.  **Clearance:** The design should include a little bit of clearance to allow for slight variations in rod diameter and to make it easier to fit the protector. A small amount of clearance will also help with fit if the printed part has a slight amount of squish on the first layer. This should be a small, configurable parameter (e.g. `clearance`).
3.  **Cap Shape:** I would like to be able to choose from a few different cap shapes. A simple flat cap should be available as well as the hemispherical one. A rounded cap would be nice too.
4.  **Robustness:** The design needs to be robust enough to withstand some impacts and not break easily, but I don’t need anything super heavy-duty. So while I don't need anything like a honeycomb infill, having some sort of fillet to reduce the stress where the cylinder and cap sections meet would be a nice touch. I think this would be helpful, especially if I use the `flat` option.

I'm looking for a single, well-documented `.scad` file. I'm not using any extra libraries like MCAD or BOSL right now, so I don't think they're needed. I'd like to keep the code reasonably easy to read. I would also like the code to work well with the OpenSCAD customizer.

Okay, I need help designing a card holder for board game cards, and I'd like it to be parametric so I can adjust it to different card sizes. I've been playing around with this existing design ([holder_v1.scad](holder_v1.scad)) I found on Thingiverse, but I need a more refined and robust version. I'd prefer not to use an old design, I'd like to see how you'd approach it from scratch.

Here's what I'm looking for:

**Basic Functionality:**

*   The holder should have a base to hold a stack of cards.
*   It should have a lid that snaps securely onto the base.
*   The lid should use a rail and lock system, so the pieces snap together.
*   It should be stackable, meaning I can stack multiple holders together using the rail/lock system.

**Key Parameters I need to control:**

*   **`numberOfHolders`**: How many card holders to generate (maybe even an array for different holder configs).
*   **`numberOfLids`**: How many lids to generate (maybe even an array for different lid configs).
*   **`cardX`**: The width of the cards in mm.
*   **`cardY`**: The length of the cards in mm.
*   **`cardStackZ`**: The height of the stack of cards in mm.
*   **`fudgeFactor`**:  A fine-tuning parameter that affects how tight the lock/key mechanism is, I'd prefer to have an array for different mechanisms or even to break it up in to smaller fudge factors for individual features.
*   **`longWallStrength`**: Thickness of the long walls of the holder in mm.
*   **`shortWallStrength`**: Thickness of the short walls of the holder in mm.
*   **`bottomWallStrength`**: Thickness of the bottom wall of the holder in mm.
*   **`lowerLockY`**: Thickness of the lower part of the lock mechanism.
*   **`lowerLockZ`**: Height of the lower part of the lock mechanism.
*   **`upperLockY`**: Thickness of the upper part of the lock mechanism.
*   **`upperLockZ`**: Height of the upper part of the lock mechanism.
*   **`keyRailZLid`**: Height of the lid's key rail part (the part that slides into the lock).
*  **`keyRailZBody`**: Height of the body's key rail part (the part that slides into the lock).
*   **`stopBitStrength`**: Thickness of the plastic blocking the end of the lock rail.
*   **`lockNubRadius`**: Radius of the tiny bump on the lock rail for snap-in effect.
*   **`lockNubDistanceToCorner`**: The distance of the lock nub from the corner.
*   **`spaceAroundCard`**: The extra space around the cards inside the holder.
*   **`lidGripStrength`**: How tight the lid's grip on the base is.
*   **`lidHoleRadius`**: Radius of a hole in the lid, ideally computed from other parameters.
*   **`printDistance`**: Distance between objects on the print bed, I'd like this to be an array or be automated based on bounding box calculations

**Desired Improvements over the example:**

*   **Improved Lock/Key Design:** I want more robust lock and key design. Instead of a simple extrusion on the sides, I want something more like a dovetail or a keyed lock to prevent accidental opening.
*   **Rounded Corners:** The current design has sharp corners, I'd like to have rounded corners on the base and lid for better aesthetics and ergonomics.
*   **Integrated Label Area:** I'd like a small flat surface on the side of the holder where I can easily stick a label for card identification.
*   **Configurable Grab Holes/Finger Cutouts:** The current grab holes are very basic, I'd like options to control the size, shape, and number of grab holes, or finger cutouts, maybe even placement.
*   **Better Calculation of `lidHoleRadius`**: The `lidHoleRadius` could be computed more intelligently.
*   **Automation for `printDistance`**: It would be great if `printDistance` could be automated by calculating the maximum bounding box of the objects, and adding a specified buffer.
*  **Multiple lock mechanisms.** I would like an option for the user to select between different lock/key methods for experimentation.
*   **Arrays for Configurations**: I would prefer to have configuration parameters stored in arrays. For example, instead of only having one `cardX` value, I would like to have an array of `cardX` values so I could design a print with different card holders on one print job.
*   **Better documentation**. I would like the code to have extensive commenting and for the parameters to be documented with their use in the file.

**Library Requirements:**
*  I would like this design to use the Bounding Box library from BOSL2 for easy automation of object placement. I'd prefer it be written in an idiomatic, modern way for OpenSCAD.

Could you generate a parametric OpenSCAD file that incorporates these features? I'm looking for a well-structured and maintainable design that I can easily adapt to different needs.

Okay, I'd like to design a parametric non-pneumatic tire in OpenSCAD. I've been playing around with some existing designs, and I'd like a more flexible version that incorporates the best features I've seen, and potentially adds some new things. I've been looking at these files in particular (npt.scad, npt_1.07.scad, and npt_1.08.scad, and the description above) so I'd like it to be based on that design.

Here are the parameters I need to control:

*   **`outer_diameter`**: The overall diameter of the tire.
*   **`outer_thickness`**: The thickness of the tire tread/outer ring.
*   **`wheel_height`**: The overall height/width of the tire.
*   **`hub_diameter`**: The diameter of the central hub.
*  **`hub_type`**: This needs to be either "servo", "screw_size" (for a bolt), or "lego". If "screw_size", the parameter will also have to accept a string like "M3", "M4", etc. If it's "lego", then we'll use an stl file for the hub (I can provide this if necessary).
*   **`servo_hub_thickness`**: (Only used if `hub_type` is "servo") The thickness of the servo hub extending from the main hub.
*   **`servo_hub_extra_height`**: (Only used if `hub_type` is "servo") The height of the servo hub before the servo attachment area.
*   **`servo_hole_count`**: (Only used if `hub_type` is "servo") The number of mounting holes on the servo hub.
*   **`servo_attachment_height`**: (Only used if `hub_type` is "servo") The height of the servo attachment section.
*   **`rim_width`**: The width of the rims on either side of the tire.
*   **`rim_height`**: The height/thickness of the rims.
*   **`spoke_count`**: The number of spokes in the tire.
*   **`spoke_thickness`**: The thickness of each spoke.
*   **`spoke_support`**: The angle (in degrees) between a spoke and the tire rim (should have a value between 5 and 85 degrees). This should generate an angled support between the spoke and the rim.
*   **`spoke_type`**:  This should be one of "double_left", "double_right", "left", or "right". This determines the orientation of the spokes and if they are mirrored.

I need the design to have the following features:

*   A central hub that can accommodate a servo horn, a screw, or a lego hub.
*   Spokes connecting the hub to the tire, with the option for different mirroring and support angles.
*   An outer ring that forms the main tire.
*   Rims on both sides of the tire.

I'd like the code to use the `Libs.scad` library for screw/bolt dimensions, and the `MCAD/triangles.scad` library for the angled spoke support. I am happy for the code to refer to a custom .stl file for a Lego hub. I also want the code to work well with the customizer in OpenSCAD.

It should be parametric so I can easily change all the values. Could you generate that OpenSCAD code for me, please?

Okay, I'm trying to design a kind of chainmail fabric that's more flexible and organic-looking than just flat rectangles. I’ve been playing around with hexagonal links, and I've got a working concept, but it's not very curvy. I'm aiming for something that has more of a Celtic knot feel, where the links can weave over and under each other in a more flowing way.

My current design uses a basic hexagonal link shape, where each side of the hexagon either connects to the adjacent links or has a little raised 'arch' that loops over the other links. The arches work by creating a circular bar that goes up over the adjacent bar. This creates a very stable connection, but it doesn’t allow a lot of movement. I've attached the OpenSCAD file (`hex_chain.scad`) I've been working on for reference.

I'd like you to help me create a more advanced parametric OpenSCAD design. Here are my main goals and requirements:

1.  **Curved Chain Sections:** Instead of a flat grid, I want to be able to easily create sections that curve smoothly in 2 or 3 dimensions. I imagine this would involve controlling the angle at which each hexagonal link is placed relative to its neighbors, allowing a snake or spiral pattern to be formed, for example.
2.  **Variable Link Shape:** Rather than using perfect hexagons, I'd like to be able to parameterize the basic link shape. Perhaps I could specify different angles for the sides or some sort of curvature parameter for the sides to move towards a more rounded look.
3.  **Over/Under Weave Control:** I would like to be able to specify the 'weave' pattern, so that I can control which links are going under/over. My current design handles over/under by stacking two layers of the hexagonal pattern together, with one being offset a half of a hexagon. The new design should handle this directly.
4.  **Smooth Transitions:** The transition between different curves should be smooth and natural-looking. I'm not sure how best to achieve this, maybe a control that gradually shifts the angle of each link, rather than a sudden transition.
5.  **Parametric Link Size and Thickness:** I would like to be able to easily adjust the size of the links, the width of the chain wire and the thickness of the 'arches'.
6. **Customizable Connection:** I would also like to be able to specify the gap and 'overlap' of each 'arch' over the adjacent link. This should give me the possibility of tighter or looser connections.

Ideally, I'd like to use the `BOSL2` library for general helper functions, as I find them very useful.

To summarize: I want a parametric design that allows me to create flowing, curvy chainmail sections based on a customizable hexagonal link shape, with control over the curve, the weave pattern, and the link dimensions.

Okay, I'd like to design a sliding clamp, similar to the one described in the `SlideClamp.scad` file. I need it to be parametric so I can easily adjust its dimensions.

Here's what I'm looking for in terms of the design and parameters:

**Overall Structure:**

*   The clamp will have a main body which is a rectangular rod.
*   There will be a fixed jaw at one end of the rod.
*   A sliding jaw will move along the rod.
*   Both jaws will have a v-shaped cutout to help grip objects.
*   The jaws will have a hook extending out away from the clamp on the end that is not at the rod.

**Key Parameters:**

*   `rodLen`: Total length of the clamp's rod (main body).
*   `rodWidth`: Width of the clamp's rod.
*   `rodThickness`: Thickness of the clamp's rod.
*   `jawLen`: Length of the jaw.
*   `jawWidth`: Width of the jaw.
*   `veeDepth`: Depth of the v-shaped cutout in the jaws.
*   `clearance`: Amount of space between the slider and the rod.
*   `hookLen`: The length of the hooks on the ends of the jaws.

**Details:**

*   **Rod:** A simple rectangular prism.
*   **Fixed Jaw:**
    *   Attached to the end of the rod.
    *   Has a rectangular base extending out from the rod
    *   Has a angled section, where it meets the rod, which forms a sort of reverse wedge.
    *   Has a v-shaped cutout near the holding surface.
    *   Has a hook extending out from the end.
*   **Sliding Jaw (Slider):**
    *   Has a rectangular base that slides over the rod, with appropriate clearance for movement.
    *   Includes a similar jaw shape, v-cutout, and hook like the fixed jaw, but offset from the base.

**Functional Requirements:**

*   The slider should move smoothly along the rod with the specified `clearance`.
*   The jaws should have a good surface for clamping using a rubber band.

**OpenSCAD Specifics:**

I'd like to have a single OpenSCAD file that creates the clamp with all of the aforementioned parameters defined at the top. The file should include modules for the following:

*   `hook()`:  Module to create a single hook.
*   `vee(_jawLen)`: Module to create the v-shaped cutout on the jaws, which will accept the length of the jaw as a parameter
*   `Jaw(offset)`:  Module to create a single jaw, which will accept an offset parameter to handle the fixed and movable jaw differences.
*   `slider()`: Module to create the sliding jaw component, including its clearance for the rod
*   `rod()`: Module to create the main clamp rod.
*   `print_part()`: Module that puts everything in the correct final arrangement.

The `print_part()` module should position the rod in the 'ground' and the slider off the rod and in a reasonable location to be printed.

I am not using any external libraries, so it will only need to be written using OpenSCAD's standard functionality.

Can you generate the OpenSCAD file based on these specifications?

Okay, I'm looking to design a cutting board holder, something simple to keep my boards upright against the wall. I've already got a basic design, but I'd like to improve it and make it more flexible. I'm familiar with OpenSCAD, so I'm comfortable with a parametric file.

Here's what I've got in mind. The core idea is a series of slots to hold the cutting boards, created by parallel dividers.

Here are the specific parameters I want to control:

*   **`board_count`**: The number of cutting board slots in the holder (so, number of boards it can hold). This should be an integer.
*   **`board_thickness`**: The thickness of the cutting boards we're planning to use. This will determine the width of the slots.
*   **`holder_width`**: The total width of the holder.
*   **`divider_thickness`**: The thickness of each of the dividers creating the slots.
*   **`holder_height`**: The overall height of the base of the holder, which will also correspond to the height of each slot.
*   **`base_thickness`**: The thickness of the base/bottom of the holder.
*   **`divider_height_offset`**: How far up each of the dividers should extend *beyond* the base of the holder. This should probably be a minimum, and maybe set to zero.
*   **`board_depth_support`**: How far each divider extends in depth *behind* the base of the holder.
*   **`base_fillet_radius`**: A fillet radius for the bottom base edges to be rounded.
*   **`divider_fillet_radius`**: A fillet radius for the top of the dividers to be rounded.

I would like the base to be a single, solid rectangle. The dividers would be separate objects placed on top of and behind the base.

I'm thinking we can use the `hull()` function for creating the rounded edges, and the `linear_extrude()` for creating the base with it's height and fillet. It would probably be good to use BOSL2 for the hull function. I would like to have it print without any support material needed.

Finally, can you please add comments in the code to clarify what's going on? And I'd really appreciate the units being made explicit in comments as well (e.g., "// mm").

Thanks!

cuttingboard_holder.scad:
```
// number of boards
count=3;

// board thickness
board_thickness=25;

// holder width
holder_width=30;

// divider thickness
divider=3;

// height of the holder
holder_height=3;

module board(){

union(){
	cube([holder_width,divider * (count+1) + board_thickness * count,holder_height/2]);
		for (i=[0:count]){
			translate([0,i * (divider + board_thickness), holder_height/2.0]){
				cube([holder_width,divider,holder_height/2.0]);
			}

		}
	}
}

board();
