OpenSCAD in a Tweet (3 in 1)

myminifactory

Hi. I've recently become active on Twitter. Some of my tweets feature small OpenSCAD figures that use fewer than 140 characters. I printed three of them and decided to share them with others. Writing creative code that fits within a tweet's character limit is great fun for me. I encourage all OpenSCAD programmers to try their hand at crafting unique tweets and sharing them with the community. The Code: Copy-paste this code into your OpenSCAD software, experiment with it, and tweak it to create your own custom versions. Fractal Pyramid: f(90); module f(w) { cylinder(w, w, w, $fn=4); if (w>2) for (i=[0:3]) rotate([0, 0, i*90]) translate([w, 0, 0]) f(w/2); translate([0, 0, w]) f(w/2); } Dragon Egg for (i=[0:360]) rotate([0, i, -137.5]) translate([2 * sqrt(i), 0, 0]) rotate([0, i + 30, 0]) cylinder((i % 7 == 0) ? i / 25 : 2, 4, 0.5); Vase / Planter $fn=99; linear_extrude(height=9, twist=90, scale=2) polygon([for (i=[0:359]) let(r=5+sin(i * 6)) [r*sin(i), r*cos(i)]]); And of course... have fun!
