3D Modeling for 3D Printing #1

In this video I will take you through a bit of my own learning on how to use OpenScad which I am planning to make into a series where I show the benefits of using both OpenScad and higher level modelling tools like SketchUp to model different aspects such as components and full systems.


Below is the finished code for this video for those that don't want to go through the trouble of typing it all in.

OpenScad
hw=40;
d=20;
t=6;
hr=3;

translate([(hw/2)-(t/2),0,0])
{
 cube([hw,d,t], center=true);
}
translate([0,0,(hw/2)-(t/2)])
{
 rotate([0,90,0])
 {
  cube([hw,d,t],center=true);
 }
}
translate([((hw/2)*sqrt(2))/2,0,((hw/2)*sqrt(2))/2])
{
 rotate([0,45,0])
 {
  cube([hw,d,t], center=true);
 }
}
