Bird Viking themed light switch plate with or without Key Racks

thingiverse

I printed my RepRap printer from the Athena Printer in CURA. I turned off the enable retraction option, filled density to 100%, and set print speed to 45 mm/s. I also set the print temperature to 180 degrees Celsius. My printer uses PLA red filament with a diameter of 1.75mm. I created my design by downloading a bird image from https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/ae/04/71/ae0471d53045c767e89caaee65ae0d2f.jpg and using Inkscape to convert it into a path for openSCAD. I then used openSCAD to design a light switch plate with key racks by copying code from my cat.SCAD file. However, I encountered an issue while installing the software on my Mac laptop. To use the Inkscape extension, I needed to download XQuartz software from https://www.xquartz.org/. After downloading the software, I had to navigate to the Inkscape extension folder using terminal and move two files into place using the following commands: mv paths2openscad.py ~/.config/inkscape/extensions/ mv paths2openscad.inx ~/.config/inkscape/extensions/ These files were hidden on my Mac, so I needed to use terminal to find them. Once I had moved the files, I was able to use the Inkscape extension to convert my 2D image into a path for openSCAD.
