Each folder in this repository contains a different parametrized OpenSCAD project and one or more bash scripts to facilitate generating custom STL models out of it. The models are designed to be easily customizable, allowing you to create unique designs for 3D printing. You can use the included Docker setup to build the STL files with OpenSCAD without having to install it on your main system.
The following command will build an OpenScad container image and land you in a shell where you can navigate the repository folders and build your STL files. Each folder contains a README file with instructions on how to use the scripts.

From this shell, you can access all folders in this repository and run the included scripts to generate your STL files. Each model has its own parameters and instructions.
Text2Stamp - Stamp Maker
This project generates 3D stamps from text. It uses OpenSCAD to create the models and export them in STL format, including a bash script to help you customize the generated models. You can also open the model directly in OpenSCAD and use the GUI to modify the parameters and generate your custom STLs.
- Alphabet Stamps - Set of letters from a to z that can be re-generated with different parameters using the
text2stamp/scripts/gen_alpha.shscript. - Word Stamps - Sete of pre-defined word stamps that can be re-generated with different parameters using the
text2stamp/scripts/gen_words.shscript. Words are pulled from thescripts/words.txtfile.
Check the Text2Stamp subfolder for details on how to use it.
RevolvingText - Motivational Sign Maker
Creates a 3D model of a sign with revolving text in one or more lines. The model is generated using OpenSCAD and can be customized with different parameters. The examples folder contains a few pre-generated models that you can print directly.
Check the RevolvingText subfolder for details on how to use it.
