OpenSCAD Wedge Module/Library

thingiverse

Drawing perfect wedges without a hitch has never been easier thanks to this robust and efficient library. It effortlessly handles even the trickiest cases, such as full-circle arcs or wedges that exceed 180 degrees, all without resorting to hacks like clipping rectangles or masks. The secret lies in its clever use of polygon() and some slick point array manipulation. This versatile module takes just four inputs: the wedge's radius, the starting and ending angles in degrees, and an optional parameter that determines how many fragments make up the wedge. By default, this last value is set to the number of degrees in the arc, but users have full control over it, allowing them to override it with $fn or any other preferred setting. This 2D-focused module is designed specifically for creating perfect wedges, leaving the third dimension to be handled by linear_extrude(). Its simplicity and power make it an essential tool for anyone looking to draw precise, artifact-free wedges.
