I want to learn OpenScad! Anyone have any tips?

But don't you have to learn Java to use Openjscad?

Sounds like you'd need lashings* of extra time to master it.

Lashings: English equivalent of scads

I certainly don't know for sure. But... No... I don't think so. Looking at the instruction manual I think the J is there because the compiler is written in Java and they needed to change the name because even though it is very OpenScad 'like', it isn't OpenScad. It would be good to have somebody that is actually using it jump in and comment if what I'm saying is not true.
