Since I made a new release of Banate CAD today: http://williamaadams.wordpress.com/2011/11/28/banate-cad-second-release/ I thought I'd make somethingto to go with it. Well, while I was out in space taking pictures of the moon, and space…
Inspired by Bre's Moon crater, I thought, why not the whole moon? This thing is a bump mapped sphere that uses the planetary map data/images from here: http://www.johnstonsarchive.net/spaceart/cylmaps.html Specifically, I used this one:…
I've been away from Thingiverse for quite some years, but I was getting thirsty, so I designed this simple cup to test out printing with translucent filaments Print Settings Printer Brand: Type A Machines Printer: Type A Machines 2015…
So, what are Bezier curves good for if you're not going to do much with them? This thing is a simple boat created out of Bezier surfaces. I define a bow, and a midship section, and a stern, then just stitch a few of them together. In the…
I found that with all my Bezier messing around, I needed some simple balance. This thing is a simple yin/yang symbol. You can print it as is, although to make it look good in a single color, there is some slight separation of the two…
Recently on the OpenScad discussion alias, I was trying to explain how I could do my own lighting calculations if given half a chance. Altough it's not really a possibility for the current OpenScad renderer, I got to thinking. Even though…
donb ( http://www.thingiverse.com/donb ) sent me a message recently about the SuperFormula (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superformula) as it reminded him of my other surface/solids work. Recognizing the fun challenge, I thought I'd code it up.…
A long time back, when I was first learning to code in Windows, I rand the Charles Petzold digital clock application as a sample. Since then, I've done everything with that clock from rendering in OpenGL to high resolution timers. This…
I always have need for a good/better vertex to construct space frames. This derivative thing just makes a few 'improvements' to the original design. First of all, I've modularized the code somewhat. This doesn't make any particular…
The original was a good start, and good for a moldable form. This thing represents some simple modifications to the original design to make it more easily printable. There are two primary changes. 1) There is now a central hub that is a…
Well, I started out wanting to do some nicer fillets on my OpenScad designs, and suddenly, I have a full blown Bezier surface/solids library! This thing is the Version 1.0 for this stuff. I think it's actually good enough to produce some…
The previous incarnations of the library have been good for laying down generic Bezier surfaces, but it was very picky when it came to actually turning them into .stl files that are printable. This thing will more readily turn your…
Well, it's inevitable that there will be 3D printable analogs to just about every graphics primitive/technique in existance today. This thing is an exploration in metaball creation using OpenScad. What's a metaball? In graphics,…
Ever since I saw the Mobius Heart earlier this week: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:13861 I've been slaving away at the forge trying to replicate that feat in a solid math sort of way. This thing represents a parametric torus, which is…
Yazzo is a generalized system of interconnected pieces. You might consider them to be like Legos, or Klikko, or similar builder sets. What this thing does is help you integrate your electronics projects into the Yazzo build system.…
I am always in search of the perfect space frame vertex. Some of the qualities I am after are; ease of use, reduction in amount of plastic, strength, small size, easy of printing, flexibility in construction. This thing, although not…
Not being very good with the UI 3D tools, but being good with the code... I wanted to create an interesting looking bowl, that had a height map as the texture of the surface. This thing takes a procedural texture pattern (checkerboard)…
Sometimes I want to play with a fast moving tool head, like the Ultimaker machine has. This thing is the essential linear slide moving part that allows you to play with a fast light weight tool head that moves in two of the three axes. It…
While building larger structures with struts and joints like these: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:9359 I find that I need some more tesselation of the structure. This set of things forms a simple joint which allows you to easily form…
I told my daughter to go running around the house noting things that we could create designs for. One of the things she came up with was the typical 'over the top of the door' hanger. After some brainstorming, we determined there was no…
One of the last extension libraries I wrote in OpenScad had to do with height maps. This thing implements height maps in Banate CAD. You can read the blog entry here: http://williamaadams.wordpress.com/2011/11/25/and-height-maps-for-all/…
One of my primary design goals is to increase the 'rapid' part of my 'rapid prototyping' of hardware. One of the challenges I have faced while assembling structures that utilize laser cut panels, is the screw/nut combination which…
Not a direct derivative, but similar to: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5551 I have found there are many times when I want to connect one piece of something to another. Having a generic trapezoidal key and slot system goes well for such…
There are quite a few ways of connecting hubs and rods. The previous thing used a central hub contained the 'socket' and the rod contained the 'insertion'. This thing reverses the order. The 'hub' contains the insertion, and the rod…
I need to hang a large wooden dowel in my closet to hold onto all my hangers. This thing is a Pole Socket. It comes in a matched set. One side is a closed socket, and the other side is half closed. This allows you to mount them on…
To complete this set, I need a triple socket to match the single and double sockets found here: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:7285 http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:7264 This thing gives you three ball sockets that can be attached to a…
I was fiddling about with the SuperShape thing: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:12770 and I 'discovered' this thing while playing around with various parameters. This thing can be used as a scraper of some sort. I'm thinking to print one…
A couple of times now, I've seen discussions around the topic of creating tubular shapes that have one profile on one end, and another profile on the other end. These things are a couple of examples of creating such things. It's a work in…
I uploaded my first design to Thingiverse on November 20th 2010. That first thing was a part from my "Klikko" play set: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4828 Since then, I've produced roughly 130 'things', many of which were iterations on…
This very 'old' design has been enhanced to provide some support for the clip. The difference is a rounded cutout on the 'outside' of where the panels come together. It provides some stiffening to help prevent any flexing the panels might…
I am in the process of changing the PolyBot design from using these: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4962 To using these: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5126 During that process, I find that I need a simple shelf type of thing that's…
I first tried to model metaballs in OpenScad. That effort was preliminary, indicating to me that it's not an easy egg to crack. This thing cracks the proverbial metaball egg. I have implemented a metaball routine in Banate CAD which gives…
The original thing was designed to fit into a socket, with nothing more than the socket structure itself holding it in place. I wanted to create another type of holder, so I added a couple of 2mm dimples to the sphere. This thing has 2mm…
I have need for a nice harness to hold onto my Gumstix Overo Summit expansion board. This thing isn't so much a derivative, but an application of a set of parameters to the general pcb harness OpenScad tool. It fits the Summit board in…
I have the need to mate a 1/4" thick piece of aluminum to a 1/2" round tubing. I need to be able to slide the mated aluminum along the tubing, and be able to lock it in place. This thing is the tube connector, with a captured nut on the…
I reached into the way back machine to modify this design. While my wife was putting together her PolyBot, she cut her finger on the sharp corners of this thing: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5126 As much as I love that design, it was…
Yazzo is a system of interconnecting pieces that allow you to create Yazzums (a thing created with Yazzos). The little pieces are called Yazzettes, and are the individual pieces, such as connectors, panels, and the like. This thing is…
I have need to attach some notched things to a shelf. This thing is a UClip, similar to this set of things: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5208 It has the standard Key on the edge of it, so that you can attach something, or a number of…
