Configurable D6

thingiverse

A D6 die with customizable faces. Each face can contain either an image or text. The D6 can be configured with a few lines of code. Each face can be specified as either **TEXT** (text, font, scale, underscore) or **SVG** (filename, angle). Note: The underscore option inserts a single-character underscore, and is available primarily to aid in distinguishing 9 from 6. SVG files should be scaled to 200x200mm, with the design filling the image. **d6Height** specifies the height as distance between two opposing faces. **d6Indent** specifies the depth of the markings on the face. The **faces** collection specifies the twelve faces in numerical order (1-6). The following is the code block of relevant lines from the SCAD file, specifying the size and face features of the die. The number 6 is replaced with an image of a sixpence. The attached STL file is a demo rendering of this configuration. --- d6Height=30; //height of d6 d6Indent=.5; //indentation of designs //face specs 1-6 //SVG files must be 200x200mm faces=[ [TEXT,"one","Verdana:style=Regular",.7,false], [TEXT,"two","Verdana:style=Regular",.7,false], [TEXT,"III","Verdana:style=Regular",.7,false], [TEXT,"IV","Verdana:style=Regular",.7,false], [TEXT,"5","Verdana:style=Regular",1,false], [SVG,"sixpence.svg",0], ]; ---
