OpenForge 2.0 Smooth Stone Concave Curves

thingiverse

This is part of a collection of OpenForge 2.0 compatible files that can be modified to suit your needs using the included OpenScad source code files. If you find this thing useful, or any of the original OpenForge/OpenLock files, please consider supporting devonjones on Patreon. Scaling ====== The default scaling is OpenForge's original scaling of 25mm. The scaling functions are defined in measures.scad: * default() -- the default, 25mm * inch() -- compatible with OpenForge's new scaling of 1 inch (== 25.4mm) * wyloch() -- compatible with Wyloch's scaling of 1.25" To make versions that match the new inch scale or Wyloch scale, simply edit the OpenScad source code file for the thing you wish to modify, and change all instances of default() to the scale you want to use. Then, generate the .stl files. Make sure you also generate a new scaled magnetic base as well if you want to use a smooth base. You can also generate half-height wall versions of these tiles. The wall height functions are defined in wall_measures.scad: * full_height() -- the default, full-height walls (44mm high) * half_height() -- half-height walls (22mm high) To generate the half-height wall version, simply edit the OpenScad source code file for the thing you wish to modify, and change all instances of full_height() to half_height(). Then, generate the .stl files. Painting ====== The marble paint scheme was based on Raffa's marble painting tutorial. The tiles were printed with natural PLA, and then welded with their bases using dichloromethane. They were washed and primed in black using Vallejo black primer through an airbrush. A watered mixture of white craft paint, Vallejo Light Brown, and Vallejo Flat Flesh was painted on in long strokes. Next, while the original paint was still wet, I went over a second time with the same mixture with some Vallejo Black added to get a medium gray. I went over it a third time with the original paint mix and a smaller brush to add some texture. Inclusions were painted in black with a fine brush in "lightning" patterns. The edges were darkened with watered down Army Painter Strong Tone, and the whole thing was given a wash with watered down Tamiya X-19 Smoke. The tiles were sealed with Vallejo gloss varnish through an airbrush.
