Customizable Tesselating Living Hinge

thingiverse

This is a dynamic hinge that utilizes an intricate pattern of interlocking shapes to produce a unique array of cutouts. By harnessing this cutting-edge technology, users can create innovative living hinges with artistic flair - although functionality may vary. The program allows for extensive customization, showcasing the capabilities of its design features. The object in question is a character that users can input themselves, along with various parameters such as hinge size, array type (square, hexagonal or triangular), character selection, whitespace padding, rotation, and centering options. Users can experiment with different combinations to create one-of-a-kind patterns. For those who download the accompanying .scad file, numerous examples are included, featuring a comprehensive set of functions from thing:1736879. To contribute to this project's growth, please share any comments, bug reports, or feature requests in the designated section. This would enable it to be incorporated into the OpenSCAD standard library. Print Settings Notes: This is not intended for printing purposes; instead, it should be laser-cut from flat stock.
