Triangle generator (customizer)

thingiverse

The 3D triangle generator creates right triangles by allowing users to specify parameters such as top angle, height, depth, proportion of top depth to bottom depth, centering, and inversion. It uses high school math concepts including the Pythagorean Theorem and Sohcahtoa for efficient rendering. This tool was developed to simplify the creation of support structures in openSCAD models with tall, thin walls by using low upper angles and tall heights. The triangle generator can be used as a stand-alone module or incorporated into an openSCAD model. Users can customize the generated triangles using various parameters such as angle, height, wedge width, top factor, centering, and inversion.
