Parametric Fabric Generator


The provided OpenSCAD script compiles existing fabric models and generates custom fabric sizes. All models have been optimized to reduce their file size.

If you need a non-rectangular size i recommend generating a big enough fabric. Then in the Slicer of your choice right-click on the model and select “Split”. Then simply delete the unwanted pieces.

You will need OpenSCAD which you can download under https://openscad.org/downloads.html 

 

Online Editor

You can test and execute the script under:
https://seasick.github.io/openscad-web-gui/?https%3A%2F%2Fraw.githubusercontent.com%2FXipit%2Fparametric-fabric-generator%2Frefs%2Fheads%2Fmain%2Fparametric-fabric-generator.scad%3F 

This is only possible thanks to Seasicks work. Thank you!

 

Attribution

Printables doesnt allow me to tag all models as remix sources, as some of the licenses conflict with each other. I have also hit the maximum number of tagged remixes. However every model allows remixing.

Any fabric that is generated falls under the license of the fabric model beeing used.
