another leisure project while the temperatures outside are unbearable this week. Still enjoying hull() based shapes. #openscad #3dprinting #coding

Last post for today, but I had to do the video of my #openscad woven ribbon ball model. #creativecoding

video of an openscad 3d animation of a rotating ball out of colorful woven ribbons.

almost... Getting closer to this Rattan / Takraw ball model in #Openscad for #3dprinting

a screenshot of OpenSCAD of a Rattan / Takraw ball model almost finished, six weavy circle ribbons forming a sphere leaving triangle and pentagon holes in between each other.

added the single twist cord style, which is what I was aiming for. Saw this at other basket makers, will add to my baskets. #openscad #3dprinting

openscad render view of different styled rounded rectangles. Latest addition is a single twist cord.

I started designing a hook. I didn't have a plan, just started writing code. It mostly works, still need to make it parametric.
How would do make a simple hook like this?

I'm still learning #OpenSCAD. This part, the lower knuckle for the four-bar linkage of the #Tricycle, isn't as smooth and aerodynamic as I'd like. But it's good enough, certainly for now.
The blue colour is just to make it easier to work with; the finished part will probably be c…

A CAD drawing of the lower knuckle of the four bar linkage. The body of the knuckle is an aerofoil teardrop in plan, with a radiused top and a rounded bottom.
A boss on the outer (left) side surrounds the hole for the wheel axle. On the inner (right) side is an aerofoil stub to which the aerofoil section lower bar will be bonded. In the top of the knuckle is a radiused cavity in which the pivot on the lower end of the lateral bar will rotate.

The part, which is coloured blue with yellowish-gre…
A view of the same part from in front. The hole for the shaft on which the lateral bar pivot will rotate can be seen.
The same part viewed from the lower front left.
The part in context. The lateral bar, wheel, and brake disk can all be seen, as can the lower bar, although this doesn't yet correctly join to the knuckle.

KI ein Modell für #OpenSCAD erstellen lassen. Nach ein paar Versuchen war es mehr oder weniger render- und druckbar. Es fügte unseren Designern aber (zurecht) hörbare Schmerzen zu :D

trefoil knot now as a polyhedron, done in #openscad for #3dprinting

there we go again, with a #trefoilknot I can easily make sure I defined a moving coordinate frame along the path. What a #rollercoaster. #openscad

more experiments with the spherical helix and different shapes in different orientations, looking either like a spring or a ball. #3dmodelling #3dprinting #openscad

More fun with shapes like this spherical package made of spheres using a #dodecahedron and/or an #icosahedron as base in #openscad

I think this will be a good new challenge for #3dprinting. I think the tube diameter needs to be sufficient for stability, otherwise it will be too elastic and act like a spring instead of a ball. #openscad (thanks @damarberlari@x for his stunning visual article

This 3D print was too ambitious; either there were too few supports and/or the wall thickness was too thin. #openscad #sphere #helix
