mmcwilliams 6d8666dbd5 Rendered spindles for the first time 2020-08-19 08:41:26 -04:00

mmcwilliams 192a935972 Just went for it! Added an experimental quarter version with registration notches in the quarters. Will experiment securing with locktite and determine how waterproof the joins are. Currently having a difficult time getting the spirals to print on the Ender 5 Plus in PETG. Had it work a few times then a whole lot of variables changed and now it's jamming consistently in the same places. Made some more changes to test but while I wait I wanted to make a quartered 50ft spiral I can print on my Tiertime printer with a 130mm bed.
TODO: quarter the 100ft spiral

mmcwilliams c429f57a94 Trying spiral with thicker threads. TODO: run admesh on all stls, write out to ascii still (compare sizes to binary for distribution, though). 2020-07-08 14:02:51 -04:00

mmcwilliams fc62e76a4e V3 ready to render. TODO: fix spiral triangular voids. Need to fit inner spoke area tighter. 2020-05-28 12:16:45 -04:00
mmcwilliams 5d17925f9e Start v3. Render time breakthrough makes it the only viable design to iterate. 2020-05-27 15:10:13 -04:00
mmcwilliams e3c7913be2 Move stls from "dist" to "stl", makes more sense. 2020-05-27 15:09:11 -04:00
mmcwilliams 69eb64aae8 Ran benchmarking on spiral_7 on laptop just to confirm 2020-05-27 09:53:09 -04:00

mmcwilliams 1ff54374ae v3 work. Almost there! 2020-05-27 09:51:37 -04:00

mmcwilliams e05b6cfc8d Ran benchmark script on spiral_6 and spiral_7 on vps 2020-05-26 01:27:02 -04:00
mmcwilliams f7fe5b3c39 Tired of burning cpu hours on tests I know will fail, forced script to run spiral_7 tests. WOW. Also, using more recent OpenSCAD on Linux desktop I am not seeing limits on the $fn for 60 rotation spirals. No overflow errors with path_extrude tested up to $fn=450 (250 is limit on mac tests). Render times go up to 1min+ but that is over 100x speed improvements. Wow again. 2020-05-25 23:18:07 -04:00
mmcwilliams 29b7d7782f Another spiral 2 datapoint 2020-05-25 23:03:42 -04:00
mmcwilliams 93e4a3d1ed Next-gen spiral is ready to benchmark. Generates 60 rotation spiral in 7 seconds on laptop. Wow. Hitting limits at which the spiral module overflows in the path_extrude() module. Seems to be an issue where if length of path vector array exceeds ~8500, program throws. Will test this module on newer builds to see if the 2019.05 version is the issue. 2020-05-25 23:01:10 -04:00
mmcwilliams 56cee0fb3f Add verbose comments, trying to figure this spiral generation out. Ahhhh! 2020-05-25 22:28:12 -04:00

mmcwilliams 17afd6b5a6 Add comments to spiral generation code (surrounding v3, which is where the most significant performance is gained). Change gnal_v2 to use library gnal_v2.scad 2020-05-25 19:07:02 -04:00

mmcwilliams 6f4eb31f92 V2 build process complete and run on laptop. Rerun on desktop with later OpenSCAD. Issue: render preview fails on spirals. Could be use of --preview flag in command but I don't want to just re-render an entire spiral to take a screenshot. Will test method of writing a scad file with an import statement referencing a rendered .stl 2020-05-25 01:35:51 -04:00
