Character tower generator

thingiverse

You may input any text to generate your own tower, for example π, root of 2, and so on. Of course, you can write a love letter and create a tower for your sweetheart; that could be an incredibly unique gift. :) The number of letters determines the tower's height. The more text you enter, the taller it becomes. If you wish to print it easily, set the inner_wall parameter to "YES." This will add an inner wall with half the thickness value. When setting inner_wall to "NO," use numbers or uppercase letters; it's easier that way. Leave the bottom_symbol blank if you don't need a symbol at the base. Leave spaces in between lines if you want each character to be visible above the base. Using non-English characters may require a special font. If you do this, download the .scad source file and use OpenSCAD on your computer. You will have to edit the tower_of_characters module's source code according to the font you're using; the tower_of_chinese_characters module might be a useful reference. Learn more about PI.
