How can I create a quarter cylinder?
In the vein of "lots of ways to do things", my personal favorite for rounding is Round Anything: https://github.com/Irev-Dev/Round-Anything
- Module to round individual corners of cubes in 2d
- Setting units and fillets?

OpenSCAD 3D rendering just got an order of magnitude faster
I was looking for this recently and found a great OpenSCAD library called RoundAnything. It looks very productive:

Try this,
Yes, The tip solves one of the most reoccurring questions about OpenSCAD, How to make chamfer and fillets on extrusions. As for description the code is both commented and names are assigned to indicate their purpose. In combination with the Round-Anything library a good chunk of usually hard modeling becomes real easy.

This how far I've gotten after 10 days through learning curve and iterative cycle of OpenSCAD > Cura Slicing > 3D Printing > Tweaking > Repeating...
Back to topic, you might find Round Anything to be useful -- I certainly have. I haven't used it yet, but the shell2d() out of the Belfry OpenScad Library also looks like it would be helpful for these sort of functional parts.

"offset" for 3D?
I submit my own library that supposed to help with fillets, can be used for chamfers too. https://github.com/Irev-Dev/Round-Anything

- Can you add male or female bolt threads in Prusa Slicer?
- I'm sure many around here already know about this gear generation library, but for those who don't, I'm sharing it here,
-
I just want to show you my parametric gear that I just finished. Since the code is a mess, I can't share it completely, but I'll improve it soon so you can use it easily.(sorry for my english)
I belive something like this?

Bosl1 or 2
Ah, never mind. I found it: https://github.com/revarbat/BOSL
- Creating a library for OpenSCAD
- Help with a threads module. I don't know where to start to add in the specs I want.

OpenSCAD help needed
OpenSCAD provides the primitives for constructive geometry. Anything beyond that requires libraries. BOSL is quite popular (although I use BOSL rather than BOSL2 because BOSL2 is not finalized). https://github.com/revarbat/BOSL
- N-order Bezier curve function (Did I do this right?)

What is the best 3D modeling program to learn?
If you have any programming experience then OpenSCAD might be worth a look. Up until very recently I have used it exclusively for the past few years. It takes a bit to build yourself up a personal library of common shapes but once you do you can code up a design pretty quickly. And if you use any type of good programming experience your designs are parametric by default. There are also existing libraries out there that can help out quite a bit (e.g. https://github.com/revarbat/BOSL and https://github.com/JustinSDK/dotSCAD)
