It suits me best, maybe because I remember start of coding in Basic. But looking at number of lines with code referred to transformations of objects I’m lost. I admire all those people who create complicate objects and remember source and end of each part of their code. But it is not for me. So I tried put as many transformations of one object as I can in single line basis CSV (Coma Separated Value) idea. All my designs started from May 2021 till now were made in this template. Detailed explanation in separate PDF file. Indexed database in PDF included. You can copy and paste required template (but all are included into present scad file). I’m planning to continue it, that’s why is marked with release date – for sure will be changes in the code. Only last 3 database files will be present on Thingiverse – outdated will be deleted. Follow this design if You are interested. Enjoy!
