thingiverse
Parametric Bridge used to demonstrate bridge truss design and strength of materials.
Students can design their own bridge in the customizer app.
I recommend
Width=1"
Height=1"
Thickness=.1"
Distance 1 & Angle 1 correspond to the placement and angle of the first cross member.
Negative angles can be used.
