OpenSCAD Top

thingiverse

Always dreamed of creating a top and now it's finally done. Also wanted to share, especially with the OpenSCAD coders on Thingiverse. Mirror and Hull are used to turn a simple sphere into something fun in just 10 lines of code! Have fun spinning and post your prints. X=75; D=15; cylinder(d1=20,d2=5,h=X*2.666,center=true,$fn=24); translate([0,0,100])ball(5); translate([0,0,-100])ball(20); half(); mirror([0,1,0]) half(); module half(){ net(); mirror([1,0,0])net();} module net(){for(A=[X:-5:0]){line(A);}} module line(A){ B=abs(A-X); hull(){translate([-A,-A,B])ball(D); translate([A,A,B])ball(D); translate([-A,A,-B])ball(D); translate([A,-A,-B])ball(D);}} module ball(D){ sphere(d=D,$fn=24);}
