An OpenSCAD library of useful functions, modules and components.

• All shapes and solids default to center = true, though component mocks are positioned to suit their typical use case (e.g. screws are aligned with head in positive and shank in negative y axis).

• Millimeters per inch
• Pi
• Metric nuts/screw dimensions
• Component dimensions

• circumference(r) - circumference of a circle
• clamp(value, v1, v2) - clamps a value between two other values
• contains(needle, haystack) - checks if vector contains given value
• error(msg) - logs a vector of error message values to the console
• for_unity3d(scale = 0.001) - scales and orients models for use in Unity3D
• get_fragments_from_r(r, fa = $fa, fn = $fn, fs = $fs) - derives $fn from radius, as per docs
• helix_angle(r, pitch) - determines angle of a helix at given pitch and radius
• index_of(needle, haystack) - finds index of given value
• join(values, sep = ", ") - creates a string from vector elements
• linear_extrude_chamfer(h, chamfer, round = false, center = false, convexity = 1, $fn = $fn) - applies a linear_extrude and minkowski to a shape resulting in chamfered edge
• linear_rotate_extrude(h = 1, a = 360, center = true, convexity = 1, $fn = 0) - mimics rotate_extrude while applying a linear transform. It's a hack! - hulls two thin linear_extrudes, since we can't hull 2D shapes in 3D
• lookup_vector(i, table) - same as lookup but also works on vector values
• offset_point(p, delta = 0) - INVESTIGATE delta * 2 - should be *1?
• oscillate(min = -1, max = 1, t = $t) - sweeps a value between given minimum and maximum, for animation
• poly_coords(n, r = 1, mid = true) - creates vector of points with faces at radius (rather than points)
• print_registration_bounds(bounds = [180, 180], h = 0.2, t = 0.5) - used to ensure position when slicing separate models on one plate (e.g. two material prints)
• print(msg) - logs a vector of message values to the console
• reflect(x = true, y = true, z = false) - mirrors children across axes
• rotate_point_x(p, a) - rotates given point around x axis
• rotate_point_y(p, a) - rotates given point around y axis
• rotate_point_z(p, a) - rotates given point around z axis
• rotate_point(p, a) - rotates given point around all axes
• rotate_points(p, a) - rotates given points around all axes
• show_half(r = [0, 0, 0], t = [0, 0, 0], d = 1000, 2d = false) - cuts children in half for internals investigation or simple bisections
• sum(v) - sums numeric values of a vector
• translate_point(p, a) - translates given point
• translate_points(p, a) - translates given points
• transpose(pos = []) - positions children reflected without mirroring across all axes
• warn(msg) - logs a vector of warning message values to the console

• arc(a, r1, r2, $fn = $fn) - like a rainbow
• bezier(points, width = 0.5, connect = true, n = -1) - draws a bezier curve from given three (cubic) or four (quadratic) points, of either given width or by hulling children, if any
• circle_true(r, center = true, $fa = $fa, $fn = $fn, $fs = $fs) - circle with edges at radius (rather than points)
• grid(coords = [100, 100], x = 10, y = 10, walls = 1, edges = false, center = false) - draws a grid of lines
• l(dim = [10, 10], t = 1, t1, t2) - "L" shape, for beams
• rounded_gear(r = 10, n = 3, inset = true, s = [1, 1], $fn = $fn) - a simple lobed gear (for knob handles)
• rounded_square(dim, r, center = true) - square with corners of given radius
• segment(a, r, $fn = $fn) - a portion of given angle of a circle
• semicircle(r = 1, $fa = $fa, $fn = $fn, $fs = $fs) - half a circle
• semicircle_true(r = 1, $fa = $fa, $fn = $fn, $fs = $fs) - half a circle, with edges at radius (instead of points)
• smooth(r) - applies two consective offsets to achieve a simple smoothing effect
• smooth_acute(r = 0, dim = [1000, 1000]) - smoothing, but also applies to acute angles
• sq(dim, center = true) - convenience wrapper for centred square; handles dimension array lengths > 2
• star(r, n = 5, inset = 0.5) - makes star shapes with given side inset
• t(dim = [10, 10], t = 1, t1, t2) - "T" shape, for beams
• u(dim = [10, 10], t = 1, t1, t2) - "U" shape, for beams

• capsule(h = 10, r, r1, r2, center = false) - a cylinder with semi-spherical ends
• cylinder_true(h, r = 0, r1 = 0, r2 = 0, center = true, $fa = $fa, $fn = $fn, $fs = $fs) - cylinder with faces at radius (instead of edges)
• pie(a = 90, r = 1, h = 1, center = true) - an extruded segment
• rounded_cube(dim, r, edges = false, center = true, $fa = $fa, $fn = $fn, $fs = $fs) - a cube with edges of given radius
• rounded_cylinder(h, r, f, f1, f2, r1, r2, center = true, $fa = $fa, $fn = $fn, $fs = $fs) - a cylinder with top and bottom edges of given radii
• sphere_true(r, $fa = $fa, $fn = $fn, $fs = $fs) - sphere with faces at radius (instead of edges)
• torus(r1, r2, fa = $fa, fn = $fn, fs = $fs) - a donut
• torus_true(r1, r2, $fa = $fa, $fn = $fn, $fs = $fs) - a donut with extruded circle having edges at radius (instead of points)
