Bathroom Nov 2019

Toilet-roll holder

Designed to fit two existing drill holes — a holder whose hole spacing can be adjusted via a single variable. With the complete OpenSCAD source.

Garden Oct 2019

Play tower in Bangkirai wood

A design for a garden play tower — and a nice example of how to place many identical planks with OpenSCAD loops.

Spare parts Oct 2019

Faucet ring as a spare part

A spare part for an Ideal Standard mixer tap, printed in golden PETG — and a nice example of how commented variables keep a design easy to adapt.

Bathroom Oct 2019

Shower-head holder for the rail

A second shower-head holder for the Grohe rail — so nobody has to readjust the other person's holder. With a bonus hook for the soap bag.

Spare parts Oct 2019

Spare part for the range hood

One of my first OpenSCAD designs: a spare part for our range hood — the part that finally reconciled my wife with the 3D printer. With a preview highlight and an optional reinforcement axle.

Garden Oct 2019

Fence-post cap against the rain

Five caps printed in silver PETG protect our round fence posts from the rain — solid OpenSCAD craft with variables, translate and difference.

Toys Oct 2019

Chimney for the dollhouse

A chimney with a parameterised roof pitch — including a bit of trigonometry and a first foray into the polyhedron() function and the OpenSCAD Customizer.

Gifts Oct 2019

A vase for Mother's Day

A deliberately faceted vase as a Mother's Day gift — a low $fn value for the polygonal look and a base made from the hull of two cylinders. Plus: printing it watertight.

Gifts Oct 2019

Money and card clip for a 50th birthday

A "50" as a clip for a banknote and a greetings card — a neat example of extruded text with linear_extrude and a slot made with difference.
