Small bar pendant
Hey guys, new to this forum and new to 3D printing.
I would like some help as far as making this. It seems simple enough, but i am unsure what to do.
Would anyone be willing to send me a file of just the pendant?
I was hoping to try and learn through this and add on to it as it is so simple and see what i could do with it.
Thank you guys.

looks pretty straight forward how big do you want it ?
I use openscad, so if you're using any other cad - my script won't help :-)
It's basically a 3 line openscad script.
You have two 'cubes' (rectangles) and then you take a third away from the big one.
//ca's pendant script
difference() {
cube([10,10,60],center=true); // creates large rectangle
translate([0,0,5]) cube([6,10,40],center=true); // removes cutout
} // end diff
translate ([0,0,-32])cube([4,4,4],center=true); // adds bottom cube
press F6 to render and then export as stl.
Because I've centred it and didn't make it upside it upside down. once you import it into a slicer you'll need to rotate 180 degrees and centre it so it's level on the printbed.
to generate it upside down simply change the '5' in the 'removes cutout' line to '-5'
and the '-32' in the 'adds bottom cube' line to a '32'.
//ca's pendant script
difference() {
cube([10,10,60],center=true); // creates large rectangle
translate([0,0,-5]) cube([6,10,40],center=true); // removes cutout
} // end diff
translate ([0,0,32])cube([4,4,4],center=true); // adds bottom cube
then just move it all up 30 mm
//ca's pendant script
translate([0,0,30]) {
difference() {
cube([10,10,60],center=true); // creates large rectangle
translate([0,0,-5]) cube([6,10,40],center=true); // removes cutout
} // end diff
translate ([0,0,32])cube([4,4,4],center=true); // adds bottom cube
} // end translate
