A parametrized base for miniatures models. Supports setting the diameter and taper angle. Can choose between solid (filled in on the bottom) or not (Only prints the outers edges). Can additionally cut a rectangle out of the base for slotting in models or add text to the base. If printing a flat top you can print it upside down. If adding text on top, print it face up in solid mode.
