OpenScad MetaBalls!
thingiverse
This text explores metaball creation in OpenScad, showcasing a rudimentary 2D implementation. Metaballs are blobby objects used in ray-tracing for muscular renderings. Despite being computationally expensive, the author's technique is straightforward and potentially printable. Users can download the .scad file, adjust parameters like ball placements and radii, and create animations to enjoy the interesting visual effects. The project is a work in progress, with plans to develop an isosurface library for metaball goodness.
