Snap star (customisable)

thingiverse

## Snap Star This is a customizable snap version of Multipoint 3D Star. ## API ```scad // Include API use <agentscad/things/snap-star.scad> // Rendering precision $fn=100; // Create star with default sizes star = newStar(); // Show the core snapStarCore(star); // Show the bed full of 26 branches (18 square + 8 triangle) snapStarAllBranches(star); // Show the special branch for stand on a tree snapStarTreeStandBranch(star); ``` Default parameters define a star with 20mm side branches and 80mm length branches. You can change this when building the star object. undef means "use default value": ```scad // Width: cell width (ie square border length) // Long: long branches (square branches) length // Short: short branches (triangle branches) length // Thickness: branch wall thickness // Form: branch form factor ( 0: Flat, 2: Rounded, 3:Straight, 4:Sharp etc... ) // Trunk_d: tree trunk diameter if you need tree stand // Trunk_l: tree trunk stand length if you need tree stand function newStar( width=undef, long=undef, short=undef, thickness=undef, form=undef, trunk_d=undef, trunk_l=undef ) = ``` ## Prerequisites for Customization What you need: * Install OpenSCAD * Install libraries (see below) * Create a new file in OpenSCAD. Following libraries must be installed in `%USERPROFILE%\Documents\OpenSCAD\libraries`. The folder `libraries` might not exist; you have to create it yourself. Download as ZIP and unzip in libraries: * [scad-utils](https://github.com/openscad/scad-utils) * [list-comprehension-demos](https://github.com/openscad/list-comprehension-demos) * [agentscad](https://github.com/GillesBouissac/agentscad) The result should be: ``` %USERPROFILE% \__Documents \__ OpenSCAD \__ libraries \__ agentscad \__ list-comprehension-demos \__ scad-utils ```
