Show HN: Atopile – Design circuit boards with code
Old issue, but annoying nonetheless. Less of a problem when outputting STL files (for printing) which only support polylines and not arcs/circles. Funnily enough, 3D printers nowadays support arcs natively in G-code, so some slicers support detecting rounded polylines and converting them back into circles or arcs.
Found a script[0] that does this for DXFs in a github issue[1].

Darwin cartesian robot bom needed
But the darwin was a pretty terrible design, why not Mendel90 or something?

Still needs more work and some tidying up (and install the hot end) but my Mendel90 was moving today. Ran a 45min gcode with no issues. Only issue so far - Bed is not getting hot enough. Maxed out at 65c. Either wiring too small or not enough voltage. Thinking about modding RAMPS and using 24v
For anyone interested in details, I suggest taking a look at the github repository https://github.com/nophead/Mendel90/

New to OpenScad: how to draw shapes?
I think one of the most amazing expressions I've seen of this so far is Nophead's Mendel90 - a 3D printer design that's fully parametric, to the point where you can not only select basically any size you want and get all the manufacturing files out, but even change everything from the whole style of the printer to what bolts you want to use, and then generate exploded diagrams of each sub-component.

My first project with the BOSL2 library
The BOSL2 equivalent is https://github.com/BelfrySCAD/BOSL2/wiki/CheatSheet
- Polygon paths using logo like commands?
- Bend Lines (machining reference) - DXF.
- Is there a more efficient way to make rounded cubes and cylinders?

New Bypass Valve for My Old Water Softener.
I used the BOSL2 library for the threads. Much easier that way!

Squeeze Tube Organizer in one (long) line of OpenSCAD
https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5905001 - Thanks to BOSL2, once I've defined a few constant, the entire source code is one (long) line:

How to control decimal precision/places on text( str=($number) )
I was heading down this path, but stumbled across this library that has a TON of really great functions: BOSL2. Lot's of useful stuff here and not just strings and math. I used format_fixed() to solve my problem. It doesn't seem to accept math functions in the call, but that is easily solved with an intermediate variable.

How to slightly bend object?
BOSL2 has a function for bending a polyhedron around a given radius but it's one of those functions that are super powerful but not very clear about how to use effectively (maybe that's just me).
