INFO: The OpenSCAD model uses the "Libertation Sans" Font in Bold. If it is not present on your machine you can easily install it by either having LibreOffice installed or getting it here:
https://www.1001freefonts.com/de/liberation-sans.font 

IMPORTANT: Make sure to slice everything with 0.2mm thickness including the first layer, otherwise the thickness staircase will not come out properly. Also make sure to not use ironing. Also, if you see that the steps of the stairs are not laid out properly, try to rotate the model 180 degrees. This seems to be an issue with Prusa Slicer.

This is essentially the combination of the great work done by @Zahg, @Seemomster and @blazerat_454911 . So it is a Python+OpenSCAD generator for the 80x35x2.2mm Filament samples by Zhag and Seemomster, based on the OpenSCAD script by blazerat, which I changed accordingly and added the .csv and Python to make it easier to use for batch processing and people less familiar with generative CAD handling and programming.

I have uploaded the .scad, example csv and script here, but to use the full generator I recommend cloning the GitHub repo at https://github.com/markusdd/FilamentSamples and  read the README. This is where you can also support me if you like the work.

Also, feel free to open Issues or Pull Requests for new ideas!

Happy sampling!
