actually, i figured out how to do what i wanted. it was more like this
//base
cylinder(5,15,15);
//body
translate([0,0,5])
intersection()
{
cylinder(30,15,15);
translate([0,0,-5])
ok, im having trouble with the knight. i need to make a cone, but with the top point shifted off the center axis of the cylinder. does anyone have any suggestions on how to do this?
i have been busy, but have finished some of the other pieces, and in doing so, have learned some techniques
note the code for the crown of the bishop. the () after the module is for you to add...
I will tweak the design as needed when I get a printer. Atm I am in the design phase only. Ty for the tip tho. That is the kind of thing I need to know
i am looking at the peachy printer, but I...
// create the donut shape that i am removing from the shaft

rotate_extrude()

i am now working on crafting chess pieces for a custom set i want to make. here is the king. any comments and critiques (be it that they be constructive) would be helpful....
hahaha aardvark. i will definitely do that with the more generic things. i was more thinking of logos for the popular things. such as maybe the mockingjay symbol made into a pin or pendant. im sure...
ok, so this is my first attempt at rendering something in a cad program in probably 10 years. i'd love some feedback. it is also my first attempt with this program. if i did not post everything...
how would i go about getting legal permission to produce things like that? try to contact the owner of the rights and get a royalty agreement or something? is there much chance of that working?
thx. i will do that. one more question, and if this should go in a new question in a different section, i can repost it:
as i am planning on eventually going into business selling the things i...
i should be able to do that. can you bevel and trim and curve edges and such?
ty for all the input! i will def try this openscad. i also found another free one. that beta one sounds iffy for me for the moment. i dont want to get roped into having to give feedback while im...
does anyone have any suggestions for free programs that are good for drafting my designs? i would prefer one that is more cad based than graphic design based (i'm sorry if that sounds dumb. i dont...
TY for the quick response. I would love some other opinions, but you did address pretty much all the points that matter to me. I recently purchased a pair of dice from shapeways, but will have to...
I am thinking about getting into 3d printing, possibly using it as a way to express my creativity and merge that into business to sell the things i create for profit. this seems to be a good way to...
