Bracelet for hieroglyphic messages

youmagine

I'm attempting to craft a unique bracelet. I thought the kids would enjoy using it for a Halloween-themed accessory. Unfortunately, my initial idea didn't pan out. Next, I considered incorporating Egyptian hieroglyphics as a fallback plan. To add some intrigue, I altered the "word" array on line 6 to spell out an obscure message. The longer the message, the longer the bracelet will be. I've also included bash scripts for converting list2.txt into an OpenSCAD array, as well as the script I used to convert it into separate SVG files using Inkscape, just in case someone finds it useful. The bracelet itself was relatively easy to create. However, designing a reliable clasp or hook that worked seamlessly with a thin bracelet proved to be a frustrating challenge. None of these designs performed well. Note: If you don't have "Noto Sans Egyptian Hieroglyphs" installed, navigate to line 116 and make the following change: Change: translate([pos,0,0]) scale([sc,sc,1]) rotate([0,0,00]) text(text = str(t), font = font, size = 57.3, valign = "center", halign="center"); //translate([pos,0,0]) scale([sc,sc,1]) translate([-55,16,0]) import(str(folder,word[nr],".svg")); to: translate([pos,0,0]) scale([sc,sc,1]) rotate([0,0,00]) text(text = str(t), font = font, size = 57.3, valign = "center", halign="center"); translate([pos,0,0]) scale([sc,sc,1]) translate([-55,16,0]) import(str(folder,word[nr],".svg")); Extract svg.zip so that all the files are in a folder called "svg" alongside bracelet.24.scad.
