Simple V-groove based sliders and rails. To use, add these lines to the beginning of your file:
include <BOSL/constants.scad>
use <BOSL/sliders.scad>
Usage:
- slider(l, w, h, [base], [wall], [ang], [slop], [orient], [align])
Description: Creates a slider to match a V-groove rail.
| Argument | What it does |
|---|---|
l |
Length (long axis) of slider. |
w |
Width of slider. |
h |
Height of slider. |
base |
Height of slider base. |
wall |
Width of wall behind each side of the slider. |
ang |
Overhang angle for slider, to facilitate supportless printig. |
slop |
Printer-specific slop value to make parts fit exactly. |
orient |
Orientation of the slider. Use the ORIENT_ constants from constants.scad. Default: ORIENT_Y. |
align |
Alignment of the slider. Use the V_ constants from constants.scad. Default: V_UP. |
Example:
slider(l=30, base=10, wall=4, slop=0.2, orient=ORIENT_Y);
Usage:
- rail(l, w, h, [chamfer], [ang], [orient], [align])
Description: Creates a V-groove rail.
| Argument | What it does |
|---|---|
l |
Length (long axis) of slider. |
w |
Width of slider. |
h |
Height of slider. |
chamfer |
Size of chamfer at end of rail. |
ang |
Overhang angle for slider, to facilitate supportless printig. |
orient |
Orientation of the rail. Use the ORIENT_ constants from constants.scad. Default: ORIENT_Y. |
align |
