Stop Sign

thingiverse

Want to learn OpenSCAD and I need a couple of stop signs. I plan on also learning how to do filament switches and print this with red base and white top. Or if I'm lazy print red and paint the raised border and text white. Included the scad file. Why isn't it customizable? Because of the font and the formulas I use it's not worth making customizable. I tried. But for a stop sign you need a narrow (tall) font. Looks like the one I picked isn't available here. Specs Based on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stop_sign#Specifications Width = 750mm (100%) Border = 20mm (2.7%) Text Heigth = 250mm (33%) And simply scaled it down. How I Designed This OpenSCAD Designed in OpenSCAD with spheres and some hacky math to get things rotated. It's got variables so you can change: sides = number of sides (works up to 12) height = total height of the sign width = diamenter of the sphere edge_width = the width of the border (default 2.7% of width) txt = the text (default "STOP") txt_font = the font to use (default "Lohit Telugu") txt_size = size of the font (defaults to about 59% of width)
